NS ODBC Driver: 'Requested conversion is not supported'

edited Dec 3, 2019 3:47PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 4 comments

I have just downloaded the new Netsuite ODBC driver 6.0. I created a Linked Server in SQL Server 2005 and have been trying to run a simple query. Before, using version 5.5, the queries have been running perfectly. Now, I am only able to return the unique id from the NetSuite ODBC table. For instance, the below code will return this error:

OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "NETSUITE" returned message "Requested conversion is not supported.".
Msg 7341, Level 16, State 2, Line 2
Cannot get the current row value of column "[MSDASQL].NAME" from OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "NETSUITE".

SELECT q.[ACCOUNTING_PERIOD_ID],q.[NAME]  from OPENQUERY(NETSUITE,'  SELECT p.[ACCOUNTING_PERIOD_ID],p.[NAME]  FROM  [Administrator].ACCOUNTING_PERIODS p  order by [ACCOUNTING_PERIOD_ID]  ') q

Howdy, Stranger!
