Problems reverse engineering MSSQL DB
« on: October 13, 2010, 09:57:03 pm »
Hi,

I'm attempting to generate a DB schema by reverse engineering an existing MSSQL DB.

However, when I attempt to import the tables from the DSN I have created I get an "Error retrieving table details" message and the following error is reported in the output window:

Error retrieving columns for table: syscolumns => [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Line 47: Incorrect syntax near 'p'.      

Has anyone come across this error before?

Thanks
