Not 100% sure about this, it's been a while since I last played in M$ land. But I seem to recall that if you use the M$-supplied odbc-oracle driver, then it's just a matter of configuring it and firing away from Access using the odbc connection name.

Not very functional, not very fast, but dirt easy and no need for Oracle incantations in a pure M$ environment. Received on Thu Oct 20 2005 - 22:46:19 CDT
