Linked servers in SQL 2005. hummel

sql server connect: The below works perfectly in SQL 2000.

I have setup a Linked server to Navision 4.01 with a OLE DB provider for ODBC.


I get below errors when I do the following:
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'nav4', 'true'
Select name from openquery(nav4, 'select navn from country')

Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "nav4" reported an error. The
provider reported an unexpected catastrophic failure.
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for
linked server "nav4".

Above also happens no matter what I try, can anybody help ?
(I have also tried to create the linked server with sp_addlinkedserver, this
dont work either)

Hi

This update does not work, I have installed SP1 and these files are newer
than the version
that can be downloaded from below. (it also not worked before installing the
sp1)

But thanks for your suggestion
