ORA-02074 in oracle 8 Worked fine in 7.x

Question

Executing a plsql string from msaccess
via an odbc passthrough query..
for some reason the oracle8 odbc driver is
enforcing a transaction
is there a known work around?????
ORA-02074 cannot string in a distributed transaction
Cause: A commit or rollback was attempted from session other than the parent
of a distributed transaction.
Action: Only commit or roll back from the parent session.
