Yes we can. I have even connected an Oracle to a Excel workbook (I could access each sheet as if it were a table) for demonstration purposes.

Anyway, have a look at HSODBC or Heterogenous Services Wink Unfortunately I'm not at my regular client right now (where I have documented it in a nice step-by-step document) but here are some links:
link 1
link 2
link 3

Hey, doesn't Forms6i have the Open Client Adapter (OCA)?

Yes it has. Search your Forms installation for 'oca_info.pdf' or have a look at Metalink Note:1026527.6.

Maarten has already provided all steps in one of previous discussions. Search the board for "ODBC" in the "Forms" forum; author is "Maaher". Read all you find.
