OLEDB Read Failed

A client has an issue with failing reloads, they are getting:

WHERE

Any Ideas?

Often when I receive this error it's becuase I have multiple columns with the same name. For some reason if you have duplicate column names you will receive the ODBC fail read error message.

The reloads are failing in general or just sometimes?

Maybe a different oledb/odbc-driver could help. Further the approach of reducing the number of fields and/or different where-clauses could be useful to find the cause of the issue.

Turned out to be a source data quality issue!

A Product had been setup with a pack size of 2,000 in Sage – the “2,000” has a comma and has caused the SQL scripts to fail.

Once corrected it worked!!!

Thanks for the pointers
