Pass through query to Oracle database

K

Kirk P.

Trying to set up the ODBC connection to retrieve data into Access via a pass
through query to Oracle. I'm using the Microsoft ODBC for Oracle driver, and
I need to provide the SERVER in the connection string.

I thought the Oracle TNS file provided all the connection info
penprd01 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS =
(PROTOCOL = TCP)
(HOST = dc1db08.dc1.digitalriver.com)
(PORT = 1556)
)
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = penprd01)
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
)
)

But no matter what I've tried in the SERVER field, I can't get it to
connect. I do have access to the database...

Help?
