Hi,
can anyone help ...?

Using:
TSM server 4.1.2
TSM ODBC driver v4.1.2 (PTF IP22151)
MS SQL 7 to store extracted data
TDS 2.1 + patch 0006 which upgrades to 2.1.1

What works:
Install and patch TDS.
Install Guide and loader v4.1.0
Loader extracts from TSM server
TDS cubes build and can be viewed fine !!!

Then upgrade to lastest version of Guide for TSM and problem occurs:
Install latest guide and loader v4.2.0
Upgrade schema in SQL database
Loader now fails to extract from TSM server with the following message in
the loader screen...

03.07.0200
Server = TSM ODBC Sample User DSN
DataSource = TSMSQL
Server values = DSN=TSM ODBC Sample User DSN;UID=admin
Thread ID = 171
Error encountered while processing this server.
Moving to the next server on the list.
Error processing server TSM ODBC Sample User DSN
Error Number = 449
Error Source = TSMDSL
Error Description = Argument not optional

...it seems as if the loader is not sending a parameter through the ODBC DSN
to TSM !? - BIG guess !

I've checked and re-checked the pre-req's and cannot see anything wrong...
Does anyone have any idea ?

thanks,
Ian
