SQL and ODBC

Has anyone else seen this, and is there a known work-around?
We're trying to open a Navision SQL database using ODBC in Access. It seems to have trouble with Navision's table and field names. Some tables open without difficulty but those with "No." fields fail. The usual error message is "Syntax Error Near ','". With the non-SQL database, there's a translation step that lets me translate spaces and periods and other special chars into underscores (or nothing). Is there something similar for SQL databases? Is there a different driver that works better. I would really be interested in hearing from someone who has experienced this problem and has attempted to resolve it. Thanks very much.

Then Access can read the views without problem.
