How do I connect Discoverer 3.1.36 to Paradox 8 under Win NT 4.0?

The on-line manual for version 3.1.36.06 of the Discoverer Admin
product suggests that you can read in data from non-Oracle
databases. The following steps are from the on-line manual
instructions about creating a new business area:
1. From the File menu, choose New.
2. In the Load Wizard, choose Create a new business area.
3. Select where you want to load your data from:
Select On-line dictionary to load your data from the
Oracle database where the current EUL resides.
Select Gateway to load your data from a non-Oracle data
source.
4. Click Next
I am trying to read data from Paradox Version 8.00.302.
Has anyone had success in this area? Can you suggest any web
sites or books? How do I set up a gateway?
Am I dealing with gateways or ODBC or both in trying to read the
Paradox tables?
Thank you.

Steve,
We do not have a Transparent Gateway for Paradox.
You can use Generic Connectivity to connect to it using an ODBC
driver.
For more information on Generic Connectivity and how to set it up
refer to Chap 7 of the Heterogeneous Connectivity Administrator's
Guide on OTN at
http://download-west.oracle.com/otndoc/oracle9i/901_doc/server.90
1/a88789/gencon.htm#1656
Ensure that the ODBC driver that you are using, meets the
requirements defined in this chapter. The ODBC driver also needs
to be configured in order to be able to access Paradox. If you
are not able to access it look at the ODBC driver log file for
errors.

  • How would one communicate with a custom I/O card under Win 2000 and Labview?

    Hypothetically speaking, if I were to develop a custom prototyping PCI card interface using addresses 300 to 303, what would be involved in getting LabVIEW to communicate with this prototyping card? What issues may be important in the development of the prototype card itself?

    Hi Robert,
    NI-VISA offers you the ability access the hardware directly.
    Issues?
    Speed, I believe this is not the fastest way to get at the registers.
    Determinism, if your device will require the CPU get back to it on a regular basis, Windows could get in the way.
    Just the thoughts that come to mind. I hope this helps,

    Hi
    Take a look on MetaLink at document: 313418.1
    That contains all of the rules and steps for connecting Discoverer to E-Business Suite.
    In order to have an EUL that understands E-Business Suite's logins and responsibilities, please take a look at the document called Setting up an Apps mode EUL available as a free download from my website here: http://learndiscoverer.com/downloads/downloads.htm

  • How do I connect my buetooth to my iPhone 4s?

    How do I connect my bluetooth to my iPhone 4s?

    Sorry, what do you mean? You turn on bluetooth on your device to connect it to another bluetooth discoverable bluetooth device.
    To turn it on: Settings>Bluetooth then tap on the on/off switch to turn it on.
    It will search for discoverable devices. Once it finds it, you can tap on it to connect.

  • Unable to connect Discoverer Server:IDL:DCCORBAException:1.0

    Hi all,
    I installed Discoverer 10 server on a machine called gnvmig.ote.gr and when I connect (from Discoverer Plus) to an Application EUL on the same machine I don't have any kind of problem. If I try to be connected to an Application EUL on another machine I have the following error:
    Unable to connect Discoverer Server:IDL:DCCORBAException:1.0
    I added inside the tnsnames.ora the connection string (to the other machine) and I enabled the trace....but inside the apps_trace.txt I don't any errors.
    The strange thing is that the connection on the remote machine worked perfectly since yesterday....and now....nothing !!
    The connection trace is the following:

    Any help will be appreciated
    Thanks in advance

    If you always get this error, then I don't know the answer. However, I see this message if I try to open a second Discoverer Plus session from the same browser session (either the same connection dialog, or on another tab of the same session). You can have multiple sessions of Discoverer , but they must be opened from completely separate browser sessions, or different browsers.

    How can I connect my 3gen apple tv with HDMI to my BUSH LCD32TV022HD
    This does not have an HDMI port but does have:-
    1) S-Video I/P,
    2) Video I/P,
    3) Audio Input (Left & Right)
    4) Audio In jack (for VGA and DVI source)
    5) DVI input
    6) VGA input

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    The Apple TV doesn't officially support a DVI connection, however you may be able to get it to work. You will first need to check that your TV supports either 720p or 1080p as well as HDCP. If you are able to get the video working over the DVI connection, you may also require a DAC in order to connect with Apple TV's optical audio output to the TVs audio imput.
    You may well wish to make sure that the DVI connection works before spending any money on a DAC..

  • How do I connect both a Mac and PC to Apple TV Home Sharing?

    Goal
    - I am trying to share both my PC and Mac through my Apple TV2 on the "Computers" home sharing menu.
    - These are 2 seperate iTunes accounts as they are 2 different owners of the PC and Macbook.
    - However, home sharing only allows me to have one at a time, can I not have 2 computers connected?
      (The menu is in fact plural and says "Computers" not "Computer")
    Attempt
    -I turn on home sharing on my PC with my PC iTunes account, it then shows up on the "Computers" list as PC
    -I turn on home sharing on my Mac with my Mac iTunes account, it then shows up on the "Computers" list as Mac, but it deletes the PC share
    Troubleshoot
    -So I started from scatch and connected the PC share with my PC itunes account, it shows up,
    -Then I connect the Mac home sharing with the same iTunes login as my PC, but it also erases my PC from the "Computers" list and just displays the Mac.
    Question
    -How do I connect both a Mac and PC to Apple TV Home Sharing?
    -I want them both to show up in the "Computers" list.
    -So the final result will look like this on my Apple TV menu:
    Computers
    -PC
    -Mac
    whew... I'm out of breath... I hope there is an Apple Genius out there that can help.
    Thanks!

    After retrying the home share with the SAME ITUNES ACCOUNT ON HOME SHARING I finally got it to work.

  • How do I connect an existing Behance account to a new Adobe ID account ?

    Hello,
    I am an existing Behance account holder.
    I recently started a new job, where they give me access to a personal Macbook & Adobe cc account.
    I want to link my existing Behance profile to my new Adobe CC account.
    Is this even possible - If so how to I connect them ?
    It would not be beneficial to create a new Behance profile.
    Thanks,

    Hello - absolutely! You just need to make sure that your Behance account is linked with that Adobe ID. Please login to your Behance account, then visit this link and choose "use a different Adobe ID" and enter your new Adobe ID with the CC account. From then on, you'll use that email address to login to Behance:Behance

  • How can I connect to a different database schema,other than adobe?

    I'm building an application where I want to use a different database for it,for storing additional data for the users(different from "edcprincipaluserentity" table in "adobe" database stores)..How I can connect to my database schema created in MySQL from Workbench,to assign tasks to my users,using the Process Management/Assign Task service?

    You can only assign task to user that are known by the LiveCycle User Manager.
    When you configure LiveCycle, you can tell it where you want to get the users from. They can be created them locally in the local database, or synchronized from an LDAP directory in which case it'll read the users from LDAP and make a copy of some of the properties to the internal LiveCycle database.
    Bottom line, all users have an id (in the edcprincipalentity table) in the adobe database.
    If you need your users to come from a different database, then you need to customize the SPI (security provider interface) so that you can synchronize the users coming from your external database. Again, this is a customization since out of the box, we don't synchronize against external database. But it is possible, the API is there and other customers have done it.
    I hope this clarifies things a bit.

  • How can I connect my MacBook Air to my Brother printer?

    I have a Brother wireless printer and I'm trying to figure out how I can connect it to my MacBook Air. It came with 2 CDs, but since my laptop doesn't have a CD-rom, I obviously can't set it up that way. And the set up booklets don't say anything about this...can anyone help?

    Any printer software that comes on CDs will either be available from the printer manufacturer's web site or from Apple. In fact, it is often more current than whatever versions are on the CDs or DVDs.
    Also, in most cases, printers with wifi capabilities have to initially be setup by using a USB connection.
