Title: URGENT ODBC HELP REQUIRED

What version of Oracle?

What OS?

 

If the need is one off maybe use MS Access to link both Oracle and Clipper via ODBC.

 

If regular need and on 816 or above on NT then you can use Heterogeneous services.

 

See Metalink notes:

I found note 114820.1 helpful - "QUICK START GUIDE: WIN NT - Generic Connectivity using ODBC"
Also note 109730.1 - How to setup generic connectivity (Heterogeneous Services) for Windows NT

Other options include, use say Visual Basic - read from Clipper via ODBC and insert into Oracle via (say) OCI.

 

Regards,

Bruce
