How to register 10g ODBC driver list in the Create New Data Source window

Hi
I've checked the dll for the odbc is in the correct home path. However, i don't see the list of the driver when i try to create a new data source. Is there a way besides reinstall the client again.
Thanks

Hi Joe,
According to your description, after you run C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe, Access driver is not displayed when you expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>ODBC>ODBCINST.INI node.
The issue is caused by wrong path of odbccad32, please make sure that you are using Administrator account or you have administrative privileges, then refer to the following steps:
Go to Control Panel.
Click Administrative Tools.
Right-click Data Sources(ODBC) to open Properties dialog box.
In Target text box, type %windir%\syswow64\odbcad32.exe
In Start in text box, type %windir%\syswow64, then click OK to save the settings.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Access ODBC Driver not appearing in Create New Data Source List

When I run C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe the Access driver is not showing up as an option. I'm running Windows 7 professional and Access 2013. I'm guessing the driver is on my machine and is either not registered or the registry
has the wrong location. I have looked under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>ODBC>ODBCINST.INI and see no references to an Access driver in any subfolders.
I think I need the name of the driver .dll and where it needs to be registered to fix the problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Joe

Cannot create new Data Source - Oracle ODBC does not show in System DSN

On Windows 7 x64, Installed Oracle 10g to use ODBC to connect to Oracle database but am not able to create new data source as Oracle ODBC does not show in System DSN.... only shows SQL server etc etc...

If you installed 32-bit Database Client, try the 32-bit ODBC admin tool: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe
Note that 10.2.0.5 is the earliest "10g" version supported on Win 7.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/relnotes.102/b15680/toc.htm#BABEBBJF
As an alternative, try the 11.2 Instant Client.

Created new data source, does not appear in the list

Hi I created a new data source using information provided in http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/apis/pdstutorial/textPDS/PDS_1.html. But the new data source I created does not appear in the wizard. Could some body give me a clue? Can somebody point me to more detailed documentation on how to integrate a new data source into Reports Builder?
thanks
Srinivas

Hi
I desperately need help to troubleshoot why my data source is not appearing in the list eventhough I feel I have done things as per the tutorial. From reading the tutotial I am not clear -
- If specifying an icon is mandatory. If I don't specify an icon my datasource should still appear right?..without an icon?
- It is mandatory to implement the editor. I have hard coded things because I don't foresee any interaction by a user with the data source. There is just one column which WILL always appear if this DS is chosen.
- Finally in the integration instructions(http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/apis/pdstutorial/textPDS/PDS_5.html) they mention that the classes have to be compiled with "report build" , is that a tool?
thanks

Oracle 10g ODBC driver with Windows 7 32 bit connecting to Excel

Hi Everyone,
I'm having an issue connecting to our oracle 10g database (64 bit system) from a 32 bit windows 7 installation running excel 2010/2007 using odbc drivers. Our excel spreadsheets worked without issue in windows xp.
In windows 7 I have been able to install the odbc driver via the following method:
1. Download the oracle 'basic' client and oracle 'odbc' client from www.oracle.com and extract the contents:
instantclient-basic-win32-10.2.0.3-20061115
instantclient-odbc-win32-10.2.0.3-20061115
2. Create a folder 'oracle' and place the instantclient_10_2 folder inside.
3. Ensure all the basic and odbc files reside in this folder.
4. Create a 'network' folder within instantclient_10_2
5. Create an 'admin' folder within 'network'
6. Create sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora files within the 'admin' folder:
7. Run 'obdc_install' within the instantclient_10_2 folder
8. Download and run the oracle odbc driver exe file from www.oracle.com (ORA10203.exe)
9. Go to Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Data Sources and create a new System DN
This allows excel spreadsheets connecting ONLY to oracle to function.
Unfortunately some of our spreadsheets connect to both a MySQL database as well as oracle. Spreadsheets connecting only to MySQL also function correctly, however, as soon as the vb associated with a spreadsheet includes a mysql call followed by an oracle call the spreadsheets fail. In Excel 2007 excel crashes completely everytime. In Excel 2010 the mysql data is generated, then when the script hits to oracle odbc connection there is a long pause, the oracle ODBC driver connect pops up requesting a username/password (this didn't happen in xp), then the data source selection pops up, then the username/password connect screen pops up again, and finally it fails with a runtime error '1004' General ODBC error.
If you look at the VB script it's failing at the Refresh BackgroundQuery statement in the ODBC connection block:
With Worksheets("Oracle1").QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"ODBC;DSN=Oracle_ODBC;UID=user;PWD=password;SERVER=ORACLE_LINUX;", _
Destination:=Worksheets("Oracle1").Range("A1"))
.CommandText = strSql
.Name = "Oracle1_data"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlOverwriteCells
.SavePassword = True
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.PreserveColumnInfo = True
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
Does anyone know how to get around this? It's very important!!
Also if you try to edit the oracle ODBC connections in Control Panels -> Administrative Tools -> Data Sources, ODBC crashes 95% of the time.
Advice greatly appreciated!!

Well, here's what I'd check anyway..
1) get Process Explorer from http://sysinternals.com
2) make a mysql connection, get a list of dll's loaded (include the location and version columns in the lower pane output)
3) close that, then make an ora odbc connection, get a list of dlls.
4) close that, then make a mysql connection followed by an ora odbc connection, get a list of dlls
5) compare the lists of loaded dlls. In particular, the difference between #3 and #4, is there a dll dependency that gets loaded by oracle's odbc that comes from a different location when you've opened a mysql connection first?
May or may not help, but might turn up a difference to help point you in a direction.

I re-installed XP and kept the old program files on another drive, how can I transfer my bookmarks list to the new Firefox ?
I tried shifting the Profile folder contents from the old to the new, that seemed to work but I kept getting a message that my security was affected and that the problem could be in that folder so I shifted it back.

Hello Kencrews,
When you connect the iPod to the computer and iTunes is authorized for your Apple ID, then you will get a prompt to transfer the purchases from the device to the computer. Keep in mind this will only transfer purchased items from the iTunes Store.
Here is a helpful article to assist getting that done.

How to register a Mobile device Id in the netweaver Administer login?

Hello all,
How to register a Mobile device Id in the netweaver Administer login?
I logged in as J2ee_admin and I see SAP Mobile Infrastructure under the Administration adn underneath I see Mobile device releated configurations But there I don't see any options for creating a entry for registering a mobile device.
How can we register a mobile device/laptop there???
Thanks for your help in advance.
Thanks,
Greetson

Hi Greetson,
well, if you open the NWA and select
"Mobile Infrastructure->Device Maintenance", search for all devices.
Select the deviceId you are interested in, then in the bottom part of the screen you will find some informations of the device. Open the second tab ("Mobile Components"). You should see "MobileEngine JSP" there as entry. Correct so far?
Then there is a button "Add/Remove"
If you select that button a new window opens. In there you can select the component you want to install on the device. Please enter the username as well - this is mandatory for the assignment. Well, then press add and the entry occures in the list at the bottom of the screen.
Next Sync - app comes down to the device.
Oh - before this can happen, you have to deploy the SDA file on the J2EE - but this is a logical step I guess.
Hope this helps to solve the issue
Regards,
Oliver

How we create new data base in oracle 10g express edition

hello every body.. i student of B tech n new user of oracle so please help me how we creat new data base in oracle 10g express edition

Hello, Oracle XE can not create more than one instance, the other editions yes, but like other editions XE allows you to create database schemas, schemas logically grouped objects like tables, views, indexes created by a user. By creating an Oracle user is associated with a schema of the same name.
Using SYS or system accounts for creating user accounts.
Syntax to create a user:
create user Your_user
IDENTIFIED BY password
default tablespace users;
grant connect, resources to your_user;

How can i import my contact list from the Nokia Suite to my I phone?

how can i import my contact list from the Nokia Suite to my I phone?

Oscar, keep in mind that my suggestion could not be the best one.
I have a copy of Nokia suite on my Windows XP partition on my Mac, just to test it.
The second icon on the upper row explains as a syncronisation with Outlook.
Try to do it and later you should use the iClod manager from Apple and Sync Outlook to ìiClod and to any iPhone iPod and so on.

How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud

How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud?

You don't need them stored locally for a backup. You can manually export your contacts as archive for backup. Also, if you are backing up with Time Machine, you already have a backup. If your hard drive crashed, you would have to rely on your backup or iCloud anyway.
So, if you're comfortable with that, sign out of iCloud. Choose to delete contacts from the computer. When you sign back into iCloud, you should only have iCloud contacts listed in AB. When you open iCal, you should only have one listing for birthdays.
The other alternative is to disable the Birthday c.alendar and create one manually.

How can i use my apple ID with the itune store over my windows laptop

how can i use my apple ID with the itune store over my windows laptop

If you don't have iTunes installed on your laptop then you can download and install it from here : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
You can then log into your account on it via the Store > Sign In menu option (on iTunes 11 on a PC you can get the menus to show via control-B) :
And you can then select the Store on the left-hand sidebar (you can enable the sidebar via control-S), and then browse items in the store and buy them by clickin on their price.

How can we create a data source on structures

Hi,
   How can we create a data source on structures.
Regs,
abdul

Abdul,
    Welcome to SDN!
    We can't create Datasource using Strcutres. We need to have base tables.
    For Function Module Extractors, we will create strctures. We will use these strctures as Extract Structures. But, we will get the data from Base tables only not from Strcutures.
Strctures won't contain data.
all the best.
