Welcome to my world. :( I was experiencing the same problem using the MS ODBC drivers (3 different versions) on an Oracle 7.3 db. However, I got the error programmatically and via the designer when trying to parameterize a date field. I never could figure this out. I worked around this form now by creating a remote view using a parameter on a different (character) field. Then I created a local view of the remote view using the date parameter. :( What happens if you do put quote marks arount the view name and the connection name? I do not think they are necessary. But since that works, I wonder why this fails in the designer because the SQL generated omits the quoe marks?
