server Update Problem

I am getting an error trying to update a table in DB2 via SQL Server using a Linked Server. I can query the table using OPENQUERY but not via four-part name.

I can do this...

SELECT

Select * from OpenQuery(db2link, 'Select frst_nm from yccfssc9.person where id_prsn = 2')

When I try to Query using four-part names I get the following error...

7399 OLE DB Provider 'MSDASQL' reported an error. The provider does not support the necessary method.

UPDATE

When I try to update using this...

Update OpenQuery(db2link, 'Select frst_nm from yccfssc9.person where id_prsn=2') Set frst_nm = 'Fred'

I get the following error...

The OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL' indicates that the object has no columns.

When I try to update using four part names I get the error that says that the provider does not support the necessary method.

OTHER INFO

I was originially using version 6.1 of the db2 client (db2odbc.dll) but tried the 7.1 client and got the same error.

I believe we are using version 6.1 of db2 connect.

The mainframe db2 is version 7.0 release 1.0

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I referenced Microsoft Knowledge Base Article #270119 to get the workarounds that I attempted...
