Hello -
Has anyone successfully connected to Sql Server as a source with OWB 10G? I'm having some trouble, as explained in an earlier forum query, and I want to make sure that there are successes out there already.
Thanks in advance,
Joe.

Isn't SQL Server natively supported? If not, you could add a System DSN (ODBC data source) on the OWB machine and create a HS service. That's how we connect to Progress and Sybase here. It has its limits but seems to work.
Do it as follows:
- Create a system ODBC data link to the SQL Server
- Create an entry in the TNSNAMES.ORA
- Create an entry in the LISTENER.ORA
- Create an INITyourODBCSID.ORA in the HS directory of your Oracle Home.
Afterwards, you can create a database link in OWB.

Hi.
In fact there is a complete Oracle's guide.
Please read from page 9-6 of the Oracle Warehouse Builder User's Guide 11g release 1, "Using SQL Server as a Source".
This is for 11g.
You can download this PDF from oracle's site.
