Creating A Linked Server Using Data Provider for mySAP

Hello Experts,

We are trying to create a linked server connection from our data warehouse box to our SAP R3 Box so we can bring SAP data over. Both servers are x64 and run SQL server 2005 SP1. I have not been able to find the x64 version of the Data Provider for mySAP. My questions are:

1. Does a x64 version of Data Provider for mySAP exist?
2. If it does not exist is there another way to safely access the data in the SAP box?

Thanks.

Would this still require the instillation of the Data Provider or would this be a straight ODBC link. We need to be able to access data through SAP Bapi's which I think requires some kind of OLEDB connection.

You would need to do whatever you normally would/had to do regardless of the server type 32bit vs 64 bit. You would just set all that stuff up in the ODBC connection
