Jase, I think I had a similar problem like yours long ago, my memory is a bit hazy. I think what the problem ended up being was specific records missing a history. So when you attempted to report on those incidents, it choked. I recommend that you run the search in the usertool, and then press control H as you're scanning through the records to see if any come up strangely or if you get an error. Alternately if you're not finding any damage incidents, I suggest trying the Excel pointed to a specific incident (one that you know IS good) and see if it'll display. Hope this ends up being helpful. Ben Cantatore Remedy Manager (914) 457-6209 Emerging Health IT 3 Odell Plaza Yonkers, New York 10701

My ARODBC version is 7.00.01.07 and I do not have any issues using the status history columns in queries from Excel. Not sure if 7.1 uses the same ODBC version.

(I know, I laughed too) :) All was fine until last week, when absolutely nothing changed (as far as I know). Using Excel and his Remedy ARODBC login, he is now unable to query HPD:HelpDesk for Status.History. If he queries on any other field, no problemo. If he adds Status.History.New, etc.. to the query, it bombs and returns the message. "Cannot open catalog, message number = 94, servername" Has anyone else seen this? I get the same result when using my ARODBC as well. I have verified running the exact same query through SQL Query Analyzer and it works flawlessly. I can query H1024 with no problem, T1024 also. Please see his below excel query. This one works: SELECT "HPD:Help-Desk"."Incident-Number" FROM "HPD:Help-Desk" "HPD:Help-Desk" WHERE ("HPD:Help-Desk"."Incident-Number" Is Not Null) This one does not work: SELECT "HPD:Help-Desk"."Incident-Number", "HPD:Help-Desk"."Status History-New-TIME" FROM "HPD:Help-Desk" "HPD:Help-Desk" WHERE ("HPD:Help-Desk"."Incident-Number" Is Not Null) **notice the only difference is the addition of Status History New TIME to the query. I believe this to be an issue with the ARODBC drivers, I even had him reinstall the user.exe to make sure his driver wasn't corrupted, etc. I hope someone else has seen this as I am perplexed. Has anyone else had issues with 7.1 and Status.History?
