Connection problem to Oracle DB with a DTS

  • Hi,

    I have to make a connection to a Oracle DB 11g with a DTS. I add the connection settings in my Oracle client TNSNAMES.ORA.

    in The DTS, i choose the icone "Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle"

    I gave the values in the fields Server : , Username : , Password :

    When i push the button ok, the connection is accepted but when i return to the icon, the field "Server : " is empty.

    Note that i can add a "System DSN" without any problem. I tried also with another DB of Oracle in the DTS and it work but the version of Oracle is 10 or 9 i believe.

    Please help !

    The problem is DTS is a development task so Oracle client is required and for 11g that is almost 2gig for Windows operating system. And you also need the Oracle OLE DB driver instead of the Microsoft driver.

  • Hi,

    Thank you very much for your reply. I used "OLE DB" and now it's working fine. Once again thanks for your help.
