Excellent!

I thought I had tried changing the TDS protocol version, but apparently
not.  Anyhow, that works great.

Now I have to get past my next problem: unixODBC is reporting:
        DIAG [08001] Could not find Servername parameter

whatever that means.  I think maybe my odbc.ini / odbcinst.ini have a
problem.  Anyone ever seen this before?


Thanks for the help,
Ross
