Hi.
I'm trying to connect to an OraDb, but i get an error message saying "Unknown username or password". The mewwage from the ODBC-driver is "ORA-01005: null password given; logon denied". I check the params string, and there the password is given.. This check is done on the line before i try to connect, but still it says that a NULL password is given.

I first created an ODBC-driver for the database, this is tested OK. I then created a driver in BDE, using the ODBC-driver.
I'm using Oracle 8.1, and Delphi 6.0 Enterprise

Any suggestions?
Is there any setting in BDE i have forgotten?
 
Hi again.
Figured it out.. The "Login prompt" checkbox had to be unchecked.
