Hello, I have an established ODBC connection to a Notes Domino Server where I can
connect to tables and pull down information using MS Access. So as far as I'm
aware the ODBC part is confirugred properly.
My linked server properties are
Provider Name: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers
Product name: Tracking_System {copied from dsn name}
Data source: Tracking_System {copied from dsn name}
Provider String/Location/Catalog: {null}
Security Tab - use this security context: (Notes user ID - fully qualified)
and my password - the same info I used to create ODBC which worked.
Server Options: Data Access and Use Remote Collation are the only items
checked... timeouts are both zero
