Hi,

I am trying to connect to an Oracle DB, installed on an AIX m/c, through a VB appl, from WindowsNT works. As per my documentation, we have to provide a connect string of the type:

cnstr="driver={Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle}; Server=XXXX; UID=XXX; pwd=xxx"

Could some one please tell me what should be entered for Server=....

Where should the name of the Oracle database, "XXX.XXX.world" (as defined in the tnsnames.ora), be specified in the conect string.

regards
Jeevan S

(PS: I would be very grateful, if some one could guide me to/ email me sample VB applications which use RDO/RDC to connect to Oracle databases. My email: "[email protected]" )
