DBLink to SQL Server problem

I created a DBLink to a SQL Server database following DocID: 114820.1. It seemed to work fine until I tried a real query. If I do something like a SELECT COUNT(*) or SELECT * it works fine;

tdispach> select count(*) from manpowerprofile_at_msql;

 COUNT(*)

---

     1207

But if I try to select on a specific field or have a WHERE clause specifying a filed I get this;

tdispach> select mpp_id from manpowerprofile_at_msql; select mpp_id from manpowerprofile_at_msql

       *
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00904: invalid column name

I know that the column name is correct so something else is not translating properly. I tried a fully qualified column name of MANPOWERPROFILE.MPP_ID and that got the same error. I don't see any setting in my DSN that could effect this. Anyone have any ideas, hunches or clues?

Thanks,

Dave
