ODBC Driver for Oracle Article06/25/2024 In this article -->ImportantThis feature will be removed in a future version of Windows. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature. Instead, use the ODBC driver provided by Oracle.The Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle allows you to connect your ODBC-compliant application to an Oracle database. The ODBC Driver for Oracle conforms to the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) specification described in the ODBC Programmer's Reference. It allows access to PL/SQL packages, XA/DTC integration, and Oracle access from within Internet Information Services (IIS).Oracle RDBMS is a multiuser relational database management system that runs with various workstation and minicomputer operating systems. IBM-compatible computers running Microsoft Windows can communicate with Oracle database servers over a network. Supported networks include Microsoft LAN Manager, NetWare, VINES, DECnet, and any network that supports TCP/IP.The ODBC Driver for Oracle enables an application to access data in an Oracle database through the ODBC interface. The driver can access local Oracle databases or it can communicate with the network through SQL*Net. The following diagram details this application and driver architecture.The ODBC Driver for Oracle complies with API Conformance Level 1 and SQL Conformance Level Core. It also supports some functions in API Conformance Level 2 and most of the grammar in the Core and Extended SQL conformance levels. The driver is ODBC 2.5 compliant and supports 32-bit systems. Oracle 7.3x is supported fully; Oracle8 has limited support. The ODBC Driver for Oracle does not support any of the new Oracle8 data types - Unicode data types, BLOBs, CLOBs, and so on - nor does it support Oracle's new Relational Object Model. For more information about supported data types, see Supported Data Types in this guide.To access Oracle data, the following components are required:The ODBC Driver for OracleAn Oracle RDBMS databaseOracle Client SoftwareAdditionally, for remote connections:A network that connects the computers that run the driver and the database. The network must support SQL*Net connections.Component DocumentationThis guide contains detailed information about setting up and configuring the Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle and adding programmatic functionality. It also contains technical reference material.For information regarding specific Oracle product behavior, consult the documentation that accompanies the Oracle product.For information about setting up or

Unzip it in the same directory as your Basic or Basic Light package.Execute odbc_install.exe from the Instant Client directory. If Instant Client is 11g or lower, start the command prompt with the Administrator privilege. To install with Japanese language support, execute the command odbc_install.exe JA.Environment setup for ODBC applicationsAn ODBC application has to load the Oracle Instant Client ODBC driver's shared library file (see next section) to connect to Oracle Database. On Linux/Unix the directory path of the shared library should be set in the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH, or platform equivalent. It can also be configured in /etc/ld.so.conf. On Windows it should be set in the PATH environment variable.Refer to the topics Environment Variables for OCI Instant Client and Database Connection Strings in the Oracle Call Interface Programmer's Guide for setting up the Database Connection string and related environment variables like TNS_ADMIN, TWO_TASK, LOCAL etc.Contents of the Oracle Instant Client ODBC PackageDescriptionLinux and UNIXWindowsOracle ODBC driver shared librarylibsqora.so.XX.Y.

3.0 or later driver. ODBC connectivity provides basic querying capability, but may not be as full-featured as a native connection in Toad. For a list of databases tested with the ODBC provider, see the Release Notes. This form of connectivity allows connections to databases such as Netezza, IBM iSeries, Ingres, and Vertica. Note: Distinct values are not available in Code Completion for ODBC connections. DSN Architecture (Bitness) Must Match ToadTo create a successful ODBC connection, the architecture (bitness) of the driver in the specified DSN must match the architecture (bitness) of Toad. For example, 64-bit Toad requires an applicable 64-bit driver and 32-bit Toad requires an applicable 32-bit driver.To create an ODBC connectionClick on the toolbar (ALT+F+N+O). Select ODBC Generic from the Group list box. Use data source name—Select to display data source names. Clear this check box if you want to display the driver names. To create a data source to use in this connection, click in the Data Source Name field. Then click Add. Select an ODBC driver from the list, and click Finish.Note: If creating an Oracle ODBC connection, select the ODBC driver provided by Oracle. The Microsoft ODBC for Oracle driver has less functionality than the driver provided by Oracle.Specify the configuration properties required for the database in the Windows configuration dialog. Notes: If you have an Oracle database with Unicode data, make sure to select Force SQL_WCHAR Support on the Workarounds tab of the windows Oracle ODBC Configuration dialog. If you do not, you will
