Thank you for your very quick response.
I can, indeed, link the Access front-end to Oracle back-end tables using ODBC
as long as I'm prepared to define the primary key again and then base updatable queries and forms on those linked tables. But I am trying not to use ODBC.
I am after a grid control that I can connect directly to the back-end tables with OO4O
or which can use the OraDC control as its source.
