I'm trying to transfer data from one sql server to another, but define my own query (basically I don't want all of the records only certain ones) and I get the following error...

Deferred prepare could not be completed.
Invalid object name 'pricelist' (this is the table I'm trying to copy)

Context: Error calling GetColumnInfo. Your provider does not support all the interfaces/methods required by DTS.

Note: I'm running this on the destination server and the table already exists, so I'm only trying to transfer the data.

Anyone know why this is happening?

TIA

Dave

not all OLEDB providers are supported by DTS. what database are you trying to work with? Are you using the latest version of the ODBC or OLE DB drivers for it?

I'm using the standard Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL server. Not sure which version. How can I check this?

Cheers

the SQL Server OLEDB provider is definitely supported. You can update the drivers by installing the latest MDAC here http://msdn.microsoft.com/data/mdac/downloads/default.aspx

What OS are you running, what service packs for the OS and SQL?

OK. The destination server is windows 2003, SQL server 2000 SP3, which has MDAC 2.8 SP2 installed.

The source server is windows 2000, SQL server 2000 SP4, which I assume would be MDAC 2.8 SP2 as well.

Still not sure why this is happening, anyone?
