Hi,

I'm trying to access an oracle database from one NT server to another and have received this error message when trying to log onto oracle:

SQL*Plus: Release 3.3.4.0.0 - Production on Mon Oct 18 08:10:50 1999

ERROR: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name

I have searched Microsoft's technet database and it states that this is an error message when running the

"sqlopen function in a visual basic procedure while several workbooks are open in Excel."

That is an Oracle error, not a Microsoft error. The likely cause is that you do not have a sqlnet connect string for the other server set up on your client. Received on Mon Oct 18 1999 - 09:56:46 CDT
