Hi! I am running Win NT at work, and we use Citrix to log into an oracle database. I am wanting to switch to access as a front end, but I am having problems with the MS ODBC drivers. Because we use citrix, I don't have the Oracle client installed, is there any other [free?] way to get the drivers to work?

Thanks!

When we use Crystal Reports to connect to ORACLE we can connect using MS ODBC driver but when we connect Access to Oracle the only driver we have been successful with is the ORACLE ODBC driver. I want to warn you that on NT systems in our company, we are about 80% successful in installing the ORACLE ODBC; on all other Windows Operating Systems we are 100% successful. Good luck!
 
Use MicroSoft Jet Engine 4 and Oracle ODBC Driver latest it should solve most of your problems
