What you need is the correct ODBC drivers for your Oracle database. They are downloadable from www.oracle.com. I have done it succesfully on a PC but never on a Mac so I can't say exactly how to do it there. I think you should be able to get some ODBC documentation from www.microsoft.com on how to configure ODBC.
