Re: 64-bit linked server to Sybase

Hi,
I've just ran into the same problem linking to Oracle 8i.
MSDAORA, OraOLEDB.Oracle and ODBC drivers do not work.

64 bit drivers have not been released yet... Any workaround except returning
to sqlserver 32bit?

Hi,

From my research, it appears that it is not possible to have a linked
server created in SQL Server 2005 x64 use a 32-bit DSN (i.e. created with
a 32 bit driver). The answer is that I need to create a 64-bit DSN in
order to create a linked server in SQL Server 2005 x64. The problem is
that many vendors (i.e. Sybase) do not have a 64-bit driver.

Looks like our migration is SQL Server 2005 x64 will have to wait unless
we can get this to work with perhaps a third party vendore such as Data
Direct. Any one using Data Direct to connect to Sybase from SQL Server
2005 x64?

Thanks,

Rocco M.
