AFAIK, you cannot....each app has one connection that it uses and even though you can use ODBC to connect to non-Oracle databases, the Oracle Developer is really designed to be used with Oracle databases....

When I need to access multiple databases of different types, I use VisualBasic or a similar 'generic' application development tool....
