Error 12705 (Bad NLS type) when connecting though ODBC to Oracle

[HenryMonster]

Hi All,

May be you could give me some tips on my problem:

My Oracle client connects to the database from
my Win/NT w/station.

I configured an ODBC DSN (using Microsoft ODBC driver for
Oracle, v 2.573.4403.00). However when I try to connect to
the database I am getting an error message:

ORA-12705 Invalid or Unknown NLS parameter specified.
Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed.


Any suggestions as o how to fix this ?


Thanks a lot in advance,


Henry Monster.

I forgot to mention, that I am actually trying to link
an Oracle table to my Access-97 database.

Try the oracle ODBC-Driver, in the client settings of your oracle client are some NLS-Parameters (regestry), perhaps you have to switch.
Normaly you should use the Oracle ODBC-Driver, perhaps the newest Patch for this version.

Best regards
