Can anyone point out as to what I am doing wrong here? I found examples out there and it looks like I am doing everything right, but I get the following error.

Any help would be great.

 ENGINE ODBC SET DEFAULT_CONNECTION MSAT_TEST

I see some SQL errors, maybe your tables in SQL have other names and fields.

I would create a MFD on that SQL Table and use that as the source.

If I remember correctly, the HOLD file does not have the column names in mixed-case. You can verify that by adding ?FF SQLOUT after the first -RUN statement. I think you need to code the select statement like this:

select TOP 1 SiteNum AS SiteNum, LocationID AS LocationID...

Doing a little research, TABLE HOLD actually inserts the table into the SQL Server, and looking at the column names of this new table it does not match the columns in the table that I want to do the insert into.

I found that I need to drop the table when I am done.

But if it works you should duplicate all the data in the original database.
Is that what you want?

That did the trick. I was able to get what I needed.

Thanks for helping me out.
