Hi all......
This probably has a pretty straightforward answer but it's not very apparent to me right now.
I'm trying to access an Oracle DB remotely. I followed the instructions in the DB Connectivity manual (I loaded the DB-Oracle feature), and when I'm at the point where it tells me to click "connect" I get a walkback. It seems like it's looking for a DLL called "ora73win.dll".
Am I to understand that this DLL is provided by Oracle? My co-workers tell me that with Java, they can connect to the Oracle DB through the network without the need of any DLLs (then again, they may be BSing!). Am I missing a step somewhere to access the db remotely? or should I do this differently?
Thanks!
