Reserved error linking to DB2 table

[Mark Coburn]

Hi,

I'm receiving an error when I attempt to link, or import,
a table from an IBM DB2 database.

The error is as follows:
"Reserved error (-7749); there is no message for this
error"

Has anyone else here come across this before, and what can
I do to correct/workaround this ?

Have not tried to link to DB2 in many years.

Does it only fail on this 1 table or every table?
If it works for some tables but not this one then there is probably an
incompatible data type.
Figure out which field is the problem. (By comparing data types to tables
that work.)
Create a view minus the offending field and try linking to it.
