How To Connect MS Access to Oracle Servers?

Answer:

Once you got a DSN defined in the ODBC manager that connects to an Oracle server, you can connect a normal MS Access document to the Oracle server, and link an Access table to Oracle table. The tutorial below gives you a good example:

► Start MS Access with a new database file.
► Go to File menu.
► Select Get External Data.
► Select Import.... The Import dialog box shows up.
► Select Files of type: ODBC Database(). The Select Data Source dialog box shows up.
► Click the Machine Data Source tab. You should see the DSN name "ggl_DSN" you defined earlier.
► Select "ggl_DSN".
► Enter User Name: ggl.
► Enter Password: retneclgg.

You should see the Oracle ODBC Driver Connect dialog box as shown in the picture below:
