When you try to perform a query to a linked table view in Microsoft Host Integration Server ODBC for DB2 driver in MSQuery from Microsoft Excel, you may receive the following error message:
CAUSE
This problem occurs because of invalid table name lengths. The table name length is limited to 18 characters, but Microsoft Access and MSQuery add wildcard characters to the table names. These wildcard characters make the table name longer than 18 characters. To resolve the problem, an exception case has been added so that the table name can be longer than 18 characters if it contains one or more wildcard characters.
