iSeries DB issues with Microsoft Host Integration SP2

[James Olliges <JOlliges@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Has anyone run into problems with Microsoft Host Integration Services 2000 
SP2 interaction with iSeries V5R3 database?  We are using the Microsoft 
OLE DB driver for a custom OLAP/SQL solution.  DBA's report that after 
applying the latest iSeries fixpacks through 12/15/05 they can no longer 
query tables with packed fields.  Is this a known issue at DB2 fixpack 
level 8?  Any suggestions to troubleshoot on the iSeries side?
 

Thanks!
