Looks like the default stuff. What version of the ODBC driver do you
have? Have you tried an ODBC trace? This would most likely tell you of
the driver had get any errors from the back-end and what ODBC
function call was involved in the error.

Failing that you could try the drivers own "mylog" trace output to see if
that helps.
