Thank you all for your reply. Now the issue got resolved. this "MSVCR71.dll" file has missed in my operating system & causing an issue. i have downloaded this file from web & included in my PC. Finally its working as expected.

Hi Hima,


As mentioned by Saritha, it would be good to check if all data source properties are set correctly.


By running the following command from the ISQL commandline.


SELECT NUMBER, short_description FROM incident;

Hi Tony,



Earlier i installed ODBC 64bit & its working fine. Then to access ODBC through excel i uninstalled ODBC64 bit & Installed ODBC32bit. Now when i try to connect through iSQL, i'm getting error saying that "MSVCR71.dll" missing. i have downloaded this file & copied to C:\Windows\System32. But still getting same error.
