| I'm running Windows XP and want to connect MS Access to a remote Oracle 10g database. I have installed Instant Client 10.2.0.1.0 and the ODBC package. The ODBC package includes odbc_install.exe. When I run that file I get an error message "Could't find Oracle Instant Client in present directory." I have the directory set in the path variable and have ORACLE_HOME pointing to the same directory. Here is the contents of the instant client directory: classes12.jar glogin.sql oci.dll ocijdbc10.dll ociw32.dll ODBCRelnotesJA.htm ODBCRelnotesUS.htm ODBC_IC_Readme_Win.html odbc_install.exe odbc_uninstall.exe ojdbc14.jar orannzsbb10.dll oraocci10.dll oraociicus10.dll Orasqlplusic10.dll sqlplus.exe sqora.chm sqora32.dll sqoraja.chm sqoras32.dll sqresja.dll sqresus.dll I can connect to the remote using TOAD for Oracle from Quest Software, but would like to be able to us MS Access. Can anyone tell me why the odbc_install.exe is not working? |
