Re: How to access Oracle databases ?

Hi,

    First you should install sql net8 server on server side. And you should start oracle TNS listener.

    You can start it in control panel in windows nt or start it in unix just type lsnrctl start.

    Clicent Software:

1. Thin Client: Oracle Thin JDBC Driver. It is good for java applet in web browser.
2. Fat Client: 2.1 Java: Oracle SQL*NET + Oracle OCI + Oracle JDBC Driver for OCI 2.2 Precompiler: Oracle SQL*NET + Pro*C/C++ or Oracle SQL*NET + Pro*COBOL 2.3 OCI: Oracle SQL*NET + OCI 2.3 Oracle Objects for OLE: It is easy for VB programming 2.4 ODBC: Oracle SQL*NET + ODBC Driver(if you using oracle sql net 2.x in client, microsoft odbc driver is better) 2.5 ADO : Oracle SQL*NET + Microsoft OLE DB for Oracle, more info, please go to www.microsoft.com/data 2.5 Tcl in Unix: Oracle SQL*NET + OCI + Oratcl 2.6 Perl : Already have, but I doesn't use it, please go to www.perl.com 2.7 Native Driver for Delphi and Powbuilder etc.

Sincerely,
Grandis
