I'm trying to connect a package called Business Objects to a Personal Oracle
database, using SQL*Net 2.2. The Business Objects database connection dialog
box asks for Username, Password, and Database. I'm connecting to the default
database that is supplied with Personal Oracle 7.2, where the username is
"scott" and the Password is "tiger". I don't know what to enter for the
Database parameter, so I'm leaving it blank. Business Objects help indicates
that this Database parameter means hostname, server, and database as a
connection string. The Oracle Personal database starts, but then I get
message ORA-01017: "Invalid username/password. Logon denied." Does anyone
have any ideas how I could establish this connection or create a connection
string? Do I need a real Oracle server? Business Objects allows either
SQL*Net or ODBC as driver choices. Thanks for your help
