Hi all, I'm new in oracle, this is my issue.
I created in oracle9 a new table. Then in an access database I tried to link that oracle table trought ODBC and a datasource created to my oracle db but not all the tables for the user appears listed in the "link tables listbox". Is there anything else I should do in term of privileges or some other permiss. If so can you give me the steps for that?
Thanks in advance...
 
Accessing the database through an ODBC datasource should, from the database's point of view, be identical to accessing it through a SQL*Plus window. Can you open a SQL*Plus window with the same username/password@instance as the datasource and verify that they appear in ALL_TABLES?
 
yes actually I can list the records from sql*plus, the thing is that in the listbox for select the table 2 link, in access, just two of the tables are listed.
As user name I'm using "system" I don't know where else to look for....
