Actually what I am trying to do is to use JDBC by choosing "Other" rather than "ODBC Socket" on CF Admin data source setup page, and what I need are the values/syntax for these entries:
JDBC URL: Driver Class: Driver Name: I looked the documentation but still don't know what to enter. Has anyone done this before?

Now I am not sure what the strings on the CF Admin data source setup page should look like. I select "Other" on the driver drop-down and on the second page: should I enter these? JDBC URL: jdbc:oracle:@myDBServer.myDomain.com:ORCL Driver Class: oralce.jbdc.OracleDriver Driver Name: oracle.jar How about the connection string field in the advanced settings section? Can someone who has done this before help me out? I am using Oracle 10g and Win 2008 R2 64-bit.

Is it possible for you to use the JDBC driver instead - either CF (DataDirect) or Oracle? If not, you'll need to download and install a 64-bit Oracle ODBC driver, if such a thing exists. But I'd recommend using JDBC if at all possible.
