Connecting SQL server from Adobe forms

Hi Experts,
I want to know, whether it is possible to connect SQL Server database from Adobe Form directly at runtime without WAS/ADS. If it is possible, please provide any material to proceed further.
Please help.
Thanks,
Rajee

Have a look at the following document, it explains how to use a MS Access database but it should also work when using a ODBC Data source configured for a MS SQL database.
[Providing interactive database lookup from forms|http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/articles/lc_designer_db_lookup_tip.pdf]
I hope I could help you.

You created the data source on the app server which is the first step. Now you can use the JDBC service to query the database:

Problem to connect SQL Server using dg4msql form Linux machine

Hi All,
I have oracle 11g 11.2.0.1.0 on RHEL 4 on one machine and MS SQL Server 2000 on another Windows XP machine. I have to link the oracle database with SQL Server Database. So that we can run queries on SQL Server from Oracle 11 Database.
For this purpose I have installed Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2) Gateway for SQL Server on oracle machine.
For the purpose of configuration, I have followed the instructions of Doc ID (437374.1) available from oracle metalink.
listener.ora file

I have created DB link using following statement:
CREATE public DATABASE LINK dg4 CONNECT TO "sa" IDENTIFIED BY "sa" USING 'dg4msql';
when I give select statement, It gives following error:
select * from "Employees"@dg4
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:

I will appreciate if anyone can help me

The general DG4MSQL configuration is correct as DG4MSQL is loaded and tries to connect to the SQL Server.
Is the IP Address and the SQl Server port (HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO=172.16.30.51:1433//Northwind) correct?
Can you ping it from the Oracle gateway machine?
Can you telnet to it from the gateway machine to the SQl Server: "telnet 172.16.30.51 1433"

Failed to connect SQL Server from Web Analysis

Hi,
I am not able to connect RDBMS-SQL Server 2000 SP3 from Web Analysis 9.3. I have installed JDBC driver for SQL Server 2000 also. Also defined CLASSPATH environmental variable for MSSQLSERVER.jar file. I am creating JDBC drive as: -
Driver Type: Microsoft SQL Server
Database Connection String:
jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://CNOIA258:1433;DatabaseName=biplus;SelectMethod=cursor
JDBC User: biplus
JDBC: biplus
I am getting error "Getting Connection Failed"
Please suggest any solution to resolve this issue.
Regards.
Atul K

Hi Atul
I think you need to amend the standard strings as follows:
hyperion.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
jdbc:hyperion:sqlserver://CNOIA258:1433;DatabaseName=biplus;SelectMethod=cursor
This has always worked for me, hope this helps

Connect Sql Server From Oracle Both on Windows

I want to connect my SQL Server running on Windows2003 with my oracle database 10g which is also on windows through some odbc which i have also created on my machine running oracle 10g. Can some one guide me with simple steps.

Generally most folks use OLEDB rather than ODBC for that.

Is that any posibility to connect SQL Server from mobile phone?

As we have known in Destop application we can use jtds or SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC to access SQL Server. How about mobile phone? Is there any kind of this driver supported to do same thing?
Thanks for your help,
Veasna

Just to second/echo the excellent advice given by omcgovern. Do NOT
connect your phone directly to your database. This is a really, really,
really dumb thing to do.
Connect your phone to a tier of your making and have that tier talk to
the database.
And just to lay out why trying to connect the phone and database directly
are bad ideas.
1) This is a major security nightmare
2) Mobile and embedded devices tend to have very simplistic/limited/otherwise odd implementations of TCP. This is done to conserve space and performance. So I wouldn't be shocked if it was
even actually impossible to physically get and maintain a connection
to a database.
3) The SQL Server protocol is complex and so are the drivers. Complexity means a largish size. Size is at a premium on mobile devices.

How to connect to SQL Server from Forms 10g?

Hello all,
How do we connect to SQL Server database from Forms 10g?
In Oracle Metalink site they have suggested using Transparent Gateway for SQL Server as a solution.
But is there a way we can connect directly to SQL Server from Forms using an ODBC connection
without installing anything on the database server?
Pls help!
Regards,
Sam

Hello all,
I was able to connect to SQL Server from Oracle using Generic Connectivity (HSODBC).
Transparent gateway was not required.
Followed metalink note 109730.1
So, after I created a dblink to SQL Server, I created a synonym for the dblinked SQL Server table.
When I used the synonym as the table source in Oracle Forms, I got the following error while querying.
"ORA-02070 - ROWID is not supported in this context."
This is because Forms has an invisible ROWID field and when data is fetched from SQL Server table
no Rowid is fetched since SQL Server table doesn't have one.
Is there a way to overcome this issue or do we have populate the block manually using a SQL query ?
Pls suggest.
Regards,
Sam

Connect to MS Sql Server from Java Source

Hi,
Is there any way I could connect to ms sql server from Java source? I know I can call java source from function thats easy but what I really want is capability to connect to non-oracle(MS SQL server) from my java source and then call it from function.
I don't know if JDBC driver for SQL server is even installed/available. Is there a way I could find it out form my IDE? I know sqlJ does compile but I have never used sqlj. help!!!

You'll probably have better luck in a Java forum or a Microsoft forum.

How to Connect SQL Server enterprises Manager Version 8.0 with Form 6i

Dear experts
I want to know that How can I connect SQL server Enterprise Manager Version 8.0 with Forms/reprots 6i.
currently I have oracle 9i database at server windows 2003 and I also connected with client (my PC) I work on server.
I also have SQL server in that server 2003 machine and this SQL Server also work with other clients that have VB program.
I want to know that can I connect with this SQL server with Form 6i?

You can't. The closest thing would be to create links in an oracle database to the SQL Server database using Heteregeneous Services and connect forms to the that.
This forum is for the SQLDeveloper tool. You will get more complete answers in the "Database General", or "Heterogeneous Services" forums

How to connect to a Sql server from Oracle using db link

Hi All,
Does anybody have any idea about how to connect to a sql server from oracle database using db link to syncronize the data? I need to pull the data from Sql server table to Oracle tables and relay messages back to the sql server.
Thank you,
Praveen.

we have 2 products - DG4MSQL and DG4ODBC.
DG4ODBC is for free and requires a 3rd party ODBC driver and it can connect to any 3rd party database as long as you use a suitable ODBC driver
DG4MSQL is more powerfull as it is designed for MS SQL Server databases and it supports many functions it can directly map to SQL Server equivalents - it can also call remote procedures or participtae in distributed transactions. Please be aware DG4MSQL requires a license - it is not for free.
Check out Metalink and you'll find notes how to configure both products.

Connect SQL Server 2012 from Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0

Hi,
I currently have a setup where ETL tool Ab Intio, running on a Linux server, connects to the SQL Server 2005 through a passthrough Wintel server with Windows Server 2003 OS using SQL server native client 9.0
Now I have the requirement to upgrade the SQL server from 2005 to 2012.
My question is, will it be possible to connect to SQL server 2012 through Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0?
As per the specs, I need native client 11.0+ to fully support SQL Server 2012, but then, as per specs, native client 11.0 doesnot run on Windows server 2003. OS upgradation is currently not on the cards.
So will it be possible to the run the basic queries we use currently, if we can connect SQL server 2012 through Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0/10.0, without updgrading the OS of the Wintel server?
Thanking you in advance!

Hi Soumya,
Yes, you can use the SQL Server Native Client shipped with SQL Server 2005 to connect to a SQL Server 2012 instance, and there is no need to upgrade the operating system.

Connect to SQL Server from Oracle

Does Oracle offer any connectivity to NON-Oracle databases such as SQL Server from within the Oracle database itself, similar to a database link ?

Yes, it's called Heterogeneous Connectivity. Basically how it works is you set up an ODBC data source on the Oracle server
and need to modify the tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files. Once you get it set up it works exactly like a dblink. You should be
able to find information on it in the Oracle manuals or from Metalink. There's also a Heterogenous Connectivity forum on OTN. If
you can't find anything let me know and I can send you some documents on how to set it up. I think the hardest part for you might
be finding a SQL Server ODBC driver for HP-UX.
