OK I got it to work, the results:!!

MS ODBC for Oracle Installed - .T.
MS ODBC for Oracle Version - 02.50
DSN 'VFP DBC Test' Created - .T.
DSN 'VFP DBC Test' Removed - .T.
DSN 'Oracle Test' Created - .T.
DSN 'Oracle Test' Current Description = Test Addition of DSN
DSN 'Oracle Test' Modified - .T.
DSN 'Oracle Test' New Description = Descript Modified
DSN 'Oracle Test' Removed - .T.

Now, what can I do to make this useful, do I use my connection string to connect?

Since on my PC, the control panel/ODBC mgr had already been in place and configured so my prg(see below) already worked. What I want to do is have it work on other systems.

{lnHandle = SQLConnect("connect1")

IF lnHandle > -1
SQLExec(lnHandle,"SELECT * FROM amcs_equipment","Result1")
SELECT Result1
BROWSE
SQLDisconnect(lnHandle)
