Shrenik,
You might try SimbaExpress which has a self install client that minimizes that amount of setup one has to accomplish on the desktop. You can download a copy of Express which comes with a free trial copy of the Simba Oracle ODBC driver.

Hi,
I desperateely need help on this problem.I have 2 machines,one
running NT server 3.51 and the other running NT workstation.Oracle7 is
installed on the NT workstation.I am trying to setup odbc on the NT
server
to connect to the machine running oracle.
I downloaded the visigenic 32bit odbc driver for oracle 7 and
installed it on the client machine.In the driver setup, i gave the DSN
name the username.The SQL *NET string was given in this particular
formnat
t:servername.
NOTE : there was no information given regarding the path to the
dirctory
in which oracle was installed on the server.
I then used a 32bit cpp sample to connect to the database.The
connection string attributes were given in the followin order,
DSN,SERVER,UID,PWD. It gave me a general error S1000 & pfNativeError
3121.
I've been trying this since a long time but haven't found a solution
for
it.
If u have even the slightest idea of what's wrong or any tips
that u
think would help me please reply.
Thanks a lot
