You have to setup heterogeous services.
Check in the Net8 guide under Configuring connections to non-Oracle Databases Services.

Here what I've done to have a dblink between Oracle 816/Solaris and SQLServer 6.5 via ODBC MERANT.

Modify listener.ora to listen to hsodbc. Add en entry in tnsnames.ora to point on hsodbc.

Create a dblink on hsodbc.
I was able to read/write on tables on SQLServer. Even if it's not support, I was able to run a stored proc on SQLServer with
dbms_hs_passthrough.execute_immediate.

The only bad thing is that all processes were frozen on SQLServer until I log out.
