Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> MSAcess to Oracle via ODBC - problem with varchar2(2000) field
Using MSACCESS 7.0 and Intersolv DataDirect ODBC driver for Oracle 7, I have
tried to link to an Oracle table that includes a not null field that is
varchar (2)2000. When I try to link to this table, Access throws an error
that references that table field ('Invalid field definition 'Field Name' in
definition of index or relationship'). I am wondering if Access has a problem
with that field size being set up as not null field (does it interpret it as
a memo field and not allow it to be not null?). I have also tried to connect
using a Microsoft for Oracle ODBC driver, and have the same results. Also
curious is that I can connect to the table in question using MSQuey and the
Microsoft for Oracle driver, but not the Intersolv driver. Any ideas or
thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...
