Hi All.
I am playing with using DSN-less ODBC for Oracle out of PB11.5.
I can successfully connect using the Microsoft ODBC for Oracle driver:
sqlca.dbms = "ODBC"
sqlca.dbparm = "Connectstring='DRIVER=Microsoft ODBC for Oracle; SERVER=MyTNS; UID=MyUID; PWD=MyPWD'"
connect using sqlca;
However when I try to use the Oracle ODBC driver:
sqlca.dbms = "ODBC"
sqlca.dbparm = "Connectstring='DRIVER=Oracle in OraClient11g_home1; SERVER=MyTNS; UID=MyUID; PWD=MyPWD'"
connect using sqlca;
I get the Oracle ODBC Driver Connect dialog box in which I can see my User Name and Password but the
Service Name is empty and I need to key it in. Obviously the SERVER= attribute does not work for
the Oracle OBDC driver the same way it works for the Microsoft ODBC for Oracle driver.
Can anyone either/or:
1. Advise me what is the correct attribute setting for the Oracle ODBC driver
2. Point me to where I can read/learn the right settings
3. Both above
TIA
