I had tried this connection before using ODBC to connec to AS400 using the SQL statment "SELECT * FROM TableName1 LEFT JOIN TableName2 ON fieldname1=fieldname2" but Im using the same statement but only one table to be queried and is giving me an error, I use this one :
...
strAs400="DSN=DsnName"
connAS400.Open strAS400,UserID,Password
rsAS400.activeconnection=connAS400
rsAS400.Open "SELECT * FROM TableName1 WHERE fieldDate >=" & RangeDateFr
" AND TableName1 <=" & RangeDateTo ,,adopendynamic,adlockoptimistic
...
On the above codes, I dont know what might wrong. It is giving me an error message ...SQL0104 - token fieldDate was not valid. Valid Tokens: FOR WITH FETCH...
Please help if someone knows this. I would appreciate it a lot...

Hi Gurus.
One of my client is using AS400 machine and wants to migrate from flat files to SQL server/Oracle. But they do not want to buy a new hardware. They like to use the same machine.
Is there any Emulator or simulator available for AS400 machine to simulate NT or Alpha environment?
Any suggestions?

I try run DTS from SQL with connection to AS400 (Client Access 32-bit ver. 8).I know this should be about 9000 records, but after 5000 records
it's stopped.
Plz , explain!
I'll gone to be crazy.... :(((
I have been handed the directive that I am to ftp flat files from our AS400 to the SQL server where the web interfaces will read the data.
I need to know if anyone out here knows how to automate the FTP download from the AS400 system.
I don't know any UNIX and even if I did the SQL box is also running a 3rd party shipping label system that disallows the use/installation of MSK Toolkit.
I thought I could use the FTP Task in the DTS package but I don't know what to put for the internet location and this is certainly not a Mapped path.
Please Help!
Has anyone succcessfully configured aa AS/400 as a Linked Server with MS SQL 7.0 using IBMDA400 - IBM AS400 OLE DB Provider.
Thanks
Hi,
I need some help here. I am trying to do a DTS from As400 from SQL Server 2000. However, the file that I require have members. IF I just do a select statement, it will retrieve the earliest member.
Does anyone know how I can access the latest member?
Thanks a lot!
I'm trying to connect SQL SERVER with my AS/400.
I linked my as400 with linkedserver.
When I execute a query with analyse query it works fine, but if I make a store procedure as schedule this job to get information from my as400 I got this msg:
Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM. OLE DB provider 'IBMDA400' reported an error. Access denied. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 7399) OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'IBMDA400' IUnknown::QueryInterface returned 0x80070005: Access denied.]. [SQLSTATE 01000] (Error 7300). The step failed.
Why? anyone have any idea?

I have been tring to connect to the as400 through the IBM ODBC (IBMDA400),
but have run into a wall. I was wondering, could i set up the 400 in SQL Server 2K as a DB or Table or something and maybe access it through SQLOLEDB?
Thanks

Simplest, fastest way to copy 7 tables from as400 to SS2K weekly. Any idea?
I have a as400 server and 2 SS.
as400
SSbox1: db1 and db2 (two databases)
SSbox2: db2 (one database called db2)
SSbox1: db1 is getting data from as400 then sending it into db2 daily.
SSbox2: DTS is copying everything from SSbox1.db2 into SSbox2.db2 weekly.
I wanna simplify process from SSbox2. Maybe a linked server from SSbox2.db2 to SSbox1.db2?
let me know if you don't understand.

I am migrating from 2000 to 2005 and dts to SSIS on several projects. I have not been able to successfully (without error) pull from an AS400 table using "SELECT *". If I reference all field names, it works fine. SELECT * actually works in the sense that it pulls over all the data, but it fails at the end, almost like an unepected end of stream. Normally it wouldn't be a problem tp qualify each field, but when I do the data gets sorted. In this instance I can't have it sorted because (without going into the stupid details) the production needs to match the development to suit my boss.
Connection = .Net Provider for OleDb/IBM DB2 UDB for iSeries IBMDA400 OLE DB Provider
Data Source = DataReader Source (I have yet to be able to use and OLE Source for AS400 without error, although my colleagues can - weird)
Here is the error I get when I change:
SELECT FieldName1, FieldName2, FieldName3 FROM LIBRARY.FILENAME
to
SELECT * FROM LIBRARY.FILENAME

Any suggestions? Is there a property on the task or connection that will fix this? Or any idea why I can't use an OLE Source to pull from AS400?
I have been trying to transfer some data from a file located in a AS400 Server to SQL , but the file has more than one Member Name. I'm not sure how to specify a different member name on the SQL query . Please help.
The name of the file is:
Library = MTGLIBP2
File Name = CHSAVQPL
Member Name = INS
this is the query I have so far but I still need to reference the Member Name
SELECT *
FROM OPENQUERY(AS400PL,'SELECT * FROM mtglibp2.CHSAVQPL')

Hi,
I am trying to transfer information from the AS400 to SQL Server tables but I am having problems trying to connect and get information from the AS400. In the data source I select the iseries connection and type in the ip address, username, and password. When I click the test connection button, it connects but under the initial catalog all I get is the computer name. If anyone has any solutions to my problem that would be great

I need to query data through SSIS from what I was told is an AS400 DB2 member table. I am assuming this is a sub-table of the main table. I was going to write a correlated sub-query in SQL to get this data, however our AS400 contracted programmer says that there is an easier way and she pointed me to the main table's member. I do not know how to go about accessing this.
Has anybody had experience with this? The AS400 programmer is familiar with SQL syntax, however she does not know how to have SQL grab the data from a member table.
If all else fails, I will just construct my correlated sub-query.
Thanks for the information.
Hallo
We got a €œSql Server€? and an €œAS400€? System. I can Read the information from the AS400 using a DataReader- Source my problem ist that I can not manage to write in the €œAS400€?. Using a DataReader- Destination I am not able to specify the destination table.
Does any one know what I am missing to Configure?
Hi everybody,
I'm new in SSIS and I'm trying to activate a lookup on a table reside on DB2/AS400. Iget the following message when I try to join the input column to the lookup column:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
The following columns cannot be mapped:
[STOREK_S, STOREK_S]
One or more columns do not have supported data types, or their data types do not match.
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
I know both columns have the same format on the DB2 table.
What I'm doing wrong ?
P.S: I'm using the IBM DB2 UDB for iSeries IBMDASQL OLE DB Provider as connection.
If I try with the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for DB2, I was unable to get the list of my table on teh AS400.
Could you help me ?

I have been asked to make it possible for our SQL 7 server to pull infromation from AS/400 and utilize it in web applications, and such. Is there any way of doing this? I have heard that you can export the data on the as400 to a DB2 file, and import it with SQL. Is this the only way of access info off of the 400?

I am presently using Client Access ODBC driver (32-bit) to connect to the AS400. I have set up a linked server that enables me to run queries against the AS400 using the driver. However I seek to have a driver that could give better performance. Right now I can extract 6 million rows from the AS400 table in like 2 hrs. Now is there an ODBC driver that can do better than that? Also I seek an evaluation edition of the driver if possible. Moreover I am the only developer and so a single user license is what I can have my supervisor budget.
Thanks,

I am connecting to an AS400 from SQL Server using the iSeries Client Access. I am getting the following error when attempting to select from 1 table:
Server: Msg 7317, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 OLE DB provider 'MSDAORA' returned an
invalid schema definition.
The select looks something like: SELECT * FROM <instance>..<owner>.<tablename>
Selecting a subset of the fields (instead of all) does not make a difference.
All other table selects work fine - this is only a problem for one table
Any ideas? Your insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi!
I would like to set up linked servers to DB2 and AS400 in SQL server and update the tables in these two databases via stored procedures in SQL servers.
I have read articles on Microsoft site which indicate installing Microsoft Host integration server and use SNA server 4.0 Service pack 4.0 to
configure DB2OLEDB drivers.
Could any one suggest how do go about doing this.
Do I need to buy Host integration server or is there any other way to do it.
your help is much appreciated

Im currently trying to query an AS400 table which I know contains 18 rows. However when executing a query through Query Analyzer' using
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(SERVER_NAME,'SELECT col1,col2,col3 FROM DS.TABLE')
I'm only getting one row returned.
Has anyone any experience of this kind of issue, and if so a resolution?
Cheers
I am trying to CREATE a member in a file on the AS400 using SQL. The member name is a variable and will change everytime the Insert command is issued. I have tried using the Alias command, but I am either doing something wrong, or it is not meant to be used to create a member that had not existed prior to the Alias statement.
On the As400, the command to add a member is ADDPFM. Then an Override Data base file command (OVRDBF) is issued to point to the right member.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Hello,

Hello!
I try to use "Execute SQL Task" to insert a numeric value into AS400.
The following command works:
INSERT INTO "MSSPRDDAT"."MSSDATE"
VALUES 1070528
But I need to use a parameter insteed. I have tried several Data Types, but non seems to work.
When I use NUMERIC, LARGE_INTEGER, ULARGE_INTEGER or NVARCHAR I get the following error message:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "INSERT INTO "MSSPRDDAT"."MSSDATE" VALUES ?" failed with the following error: "SQL0301: Input host variable DATESTR??? or argument 7 not valid. Cause . . . . . : The value in relative position 7 in the statement is a type that is not compatible with the requested operation. The value is host variable DATESTR???, entry 7 in an SQLDA, or argument DATESTR??? in a CALL statement. A name *N indicates that a user's SQLDA was used or that a constant or special register was specified on the CALL statement. Recovery . . . : Do one of the following and try the request again: -- Use a host variable that is the correct type. -- Specify an argument in the CALL that is the correct type. -- Change the type specified for parameter 7 in the DECLARE PROCEDURE statement.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
When I use DECIMAL I get the following error message:

Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
Can anyone help me?
