Anybody using SQrL and Oracle, specifically version 7.3? I noticed on = Google that the JDBC-ODBC bridge isn't always going to work (using = Windows 2k, fwiw) b/c of some "fancy metadata" that Oracle uses. I tried downloading the JDBC drivers from Oracle's site, but got a host = of errors when I was trying to log in. Not sure if I need the dll's on = the site to get the JDBC drivers working (that just seems wrong; it's a = *JDBC* driver, for heaven's sake) or not. Also tried the "thin = drivers", but for whatever reason they weren't connecting with id & = pwd's that worked through simple ODBC. Unf. I'm not an Oracle guy (SQL Server and Sybase), and am just trying = to use the ANSI-SQL approach once I do get it working, so I know less = than nothing about Oracle-specific stuff. We've got an Oracle box on = the network where we test for Oracle-using clients, and that's that. If anybody's gone through the setup and wouldn't mind giving me a = play-by-play, I'd sure appreciate it. Thanks! Ruffin Bailey |
