Check the odbc drivers config. Check things like Read only is not set. When I
tried DTS (May last year) I had to play with the psqlodbc settings, but once
found DTS worked like a dream.
One thing I do remember: Don't rely on DTS to create the tables. Get it to show
you the sql, then do the creation manually - it doesn't get the syntax correct.
