I have a development server setup in our office, and have a few develpoment clients accessing it already.

What I need now is to setup one of our end users to the developement DB in order to run an insert query from an access interface. This isn't a problem on the development boxes, b/c they have the oracle odbc drivers installed already - the end-user with only access does not. Windows(or access) comes with an oracle driver, but for some reason it doesn't want to find the service when I try to create the DSN. I tried downloading drivers from oracle.com, but they assume that client tools are already installed.

Any ideas what could be wrong, or what I need to do/create in order to make everything run smoothly?

Thanks in advance,
