Don't forget, it's NOT "regular" Oracle, but a little-supported stepchild. I sincerely doubt there are MS drivers.
Wouldn't the drivers be Ok if I can retrieve data correctly with Access and MS Query, or is it possible that they can work with two front ends and not the third? (BTW, no one else is using W2000 yet, and everyone else uses Access as a front end.)
I've connected with SQLConnect() and SQLStringConnect(), and then retrieved data with SQLExec()
>You have probably figured out the problem -- the Oracle drivers are probably to blame. If so, there is not anything I know of you can do to fix it. Obviously the problem is not with SQL*Net or your host file [tnsnames.ora] since Excel and Access work. Can you try using the MS ODBC Driver for Oracle?
