[R] SAS ODBC

[Scillieri, John]

All,

I'm trying to connect to a remote SAS server using SAS's 9.1 ODBC driver
and the RODBC package. I'm running R-2.6.1 on Win XP. I can successfully
connect to the database, but no matter which table I query, I get back
an empty table with only the column headers. For example:

	> sqlQuery(con, "select * from PRICES.DB_PRICES")

	[1] COMMOD_CURVE START_DATE   PRICING_DATE PRICE       
	<0 rows> (or 0-length row.names)

sqlTables also returns back an empty table:

	> sqlTables(con)

	[1] TABLE_QUALIFIER TABLE_OWNER     TABLE_NAME      TABLE_TYPE
REMARKS        
	<0 rows> (or 0-length row.names)

And sqlFetch doesn't work either:

	> sqlFetch(con, "PRICES.DB_PRICES")

	Error in odbcTableExists(channel, sqtable) : 
	  'PRICES.DB_PRICES': table not found on channel

Are their other options I should be using with RODBC to pull the data? I
have tested the connection in MS Access and can successfully display
data (using File->Get External Data...->ODBC->...)

Any suggestions would be great, thanks in advance for your help.
