Re: OAS pl/sql tutorial question

Hi,

I got help with this a few days ago.

When creating the DAD, be sure to specify both the sid in the TNSNAMES.ORA file and its alias in the SQL V2 Connect string.

For example:

TNSNAMES.ORA: production = (..... sid=prod) .....)

---
Then when setting up the DAD use:

SID: prod
SQL V2: production

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Paul
