Do a select on the profile table for that profile: SELECT * FROM dbo.gtrep_profile where prof_name = "TDMMart' 6. Two rows come back. 7. Need to update the row that has a Prof Su ID of -1 8. Change the column values that have {SQL Server Native Client 10.0} to have {SQL Server Native Client 11.0}. 9. Save Data. 10. Then able to connect to the TDMMART[*] profile with no errors.
