Sorry for the cross post but I wasn't sure which group might be able to help.

I'm having a problem with connecting to Oracle DB using MS Access. I setup a system DNS but when I try to connect, I get the below error:

ODBC call failed.

[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]ORA-06401: NETCMN: invalid
driver designator (#6401)
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed
IM006 0 [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed (#0)

I can make a connection using Toad, but I need to connect with MS SQL and MS Access and becuase I've never had to connect to an Oracle DB with MS products, I'm really clueless.

Thanks folks!! Received on Thu Jul 13 2006 - 09:14:12 CDT
