Hi everyone,

I am trying to use SQLREQUEST in Excel 5.0 to access our Oracle 7.0

database through SQL*Net. However I am in trouble to get the syntax
right for the SQLREQUEST. Can anyone, who has tried the SQLREQUEST
connection with Oracle 7.0 successfully, write me the correct syntax.

My statement is:
=SQLRequest("DNST:111.222.333.444:Database;DBQ=ORACLE7;   UID=queryuser;PWD=xxxxxx", A5,1, "select * from status", TRUE)

Please mail me back for any comment.

Any help is appreciated. Received on Thu Jan 01 1970 - 00:59:59 CET
