Help with Oracle ODBC configuration

Dear community:

I'm having a real hard time setting up the oracle odbc configuration on widows 7 64bit

I have followed every step specified on this link:

Connectivity to Oracle Database

and when I try to test the connection, I'm getting the following error:

error_conexion.PNG

Can anybody help me please?

PS: I've tested the connection with sqldeveloper and it works just fine.

Would you mind posting your CONNECT statement?

Can you "tnsping" your server?

sqldeveloper  is not a good way of testing, since it uses JDBC not ODBC

I'm not sure what is the CONNECT statement, did you mean these?:

odbc_config.PNG

These are the files that are in the directory

archivos_post_instalacion.PNG

and this is the tsnames.ora file

Into your script there is a line beginning with CONNECT, I refer to this line

I haven't tried it on qlikview yet, because the file source doesn't appear yet. I think that it is because the odbc windows configuration isn't working

I don't get the same options that are shown in your picture, I think that the versions are different.
This is how it looks like on my computer:DriverConf1.PNG
