NS ODBC Driver: 'Requested conversion is not supported'
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".
