Oracle OLE DB Provider
Hi Folks,
I've just got a new laptop. I've installed QV but when I want to connect to Oracle databases I cant see the Oracle OLE DB provider in the data link properties box. I've installed Oracle Provider for OLE DB (11.2.0.2.0) from ODAC 11.2 Release 3 , I thought this might do the trick but it hasn't any ideas ?Many thanks
Darrell.

But the website says 32-bit:

You should install the Microsoft Windows (x64) Client:

2. Paragraph: Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Client

Could this be a 32/64bit issue? Which version you are running?

Ralf,
I'm using 64bit QV, laptop is 64 bit but it looks like the ODAC components are 32Bit - although in saying that the system requirements for ODAC are:

Cheers Ralf - this worked, one thing to be careful about though is to do a custom install as the oracle ole db provider soesn't install by default you have to select it.
Many ThanksDarrell
