Okay, well I finally got the MS ODBC driver working, I had to go around my head to get to my A$$ doing it. So I would venture to guess I am still doing something wrong. Native drivers, I get an error with though. It is unable to verify the connection. I tried to go into the control panel to do it and got the message "Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error odbc 126(Merant 3.70 ColdFusion OEM 32-bit Oracle8)" Anyone have any suggestions? I can connect using my sql soft application just fine, and MS oracle 8. However I have stored procs and triggers and such, don't I have to use native for these?
