I started playing around with the linked server and I got it to the
point where I can see the tables from UniData, but when I try to query
it using LINKEDSERVERNAME...TABLE I get 'Invalid schema or catalog
specified for provider 'MSDASQL'." error. When I try to specify
schema using LINKEDSERVERNAME.SCHEMA.TABLE I get 'Invalid object name
LINKEDSERVERNAME.SCHEMA.TABLE'; do you know why these errors occur
and how to get around them?
