Do you know anything more??? I was unsuccessfull at getting a robust connect
ither with SQL Links or with any of the 3 ODBC drivers I have. (Merant, MS,
and OR) Even when I changed the FVendor init to the correct Or Dll, the BDE
still insisted on looking for the wrong OR interface Dll. I cant beleive
that this diesn't work. It must be something I have done wrong in the Oracle
Instalation.
Any ideas wellcome.
I did get a connection working with the Oracle ODBC in Design Mode, but it
was fragile, and Crashed at Run time as soon as I tried anything more
difficult than a select.
