Connection problem
Hi,
I am currently trying the dbExpress driver.
First of all, I've been trying to open the connection using the string builder, but port does not look to be a member of [OracleConnectionStringBuilder] as it is described in the doc.
Then after, I tried connecting using the following connection string:
but I always get the error: Cannot obtain Oracle client information from registry. Make sure that Oracle Client Software is installed, or use Direct mode of connecting to server.
As I don't want the Oracle client to be installed on the machine, I would like the Direct mode, which is specified I think; however, does not look to work...
Where am I wrong?
Thanks in advance[/code]
