Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: ODBC connection from Access to 8.0.5
Did you set up your ODBC info in your ODBC data sources control panel? Is it set up as a system or user DSN? Trace this one step at a timecan you connect from that client to the oracle server via the oracle software; do you have a valid user/password set up there; from Access, when you choose link to external data/odbc sources, can you browse any tables in the Oracle machine?
