Re: Anybody got Oracle's ODBC driver working in Win95?

We use Oracle ODBC quite a bit, under Win95 and NT4, with MS Access front-ends. One common problem I've run into is SQL*Net not being set up properly. Make sure you can ping the host name you've used in the database alias. Be certain you've got the correct database instance. In the ODBC setup, make sure you've used the SQL*Net database alias as your connect string.

Hope this helps.
