Re: Linked server query problem

Hi.

Probably, it need the new feature of Ver 8.4.
See,

I have SQL Server 2005 that is linked to Postgresql 8.3.1-1

The following query does not work

SELECT id FROM ALERT.novastar.[public].[point]

Error:

OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ALERT" returned message
"ERROR: syntax error at or near ""Col1004"";

Error while executing the query".

Msg 7320, Level 16, State 2, Line 1

Cannot execute the query

"SELECT "Tbl1002"."id" "Col1004" FROM "novastar"."public"."point"
"Tbl1002""

against OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ALERTIII".

This query does work from MS SQL:

EXEC ('SELECT id FROM point') at ALERT

Any ideas as what the problem is

Thank you
