How To Connect Microsoft Excel To Oracle DB
Hi,
My team recently took over a process from another company. The other company had a macro written which connects to oracle DB and gets the o/p result in Excel.
If i try to use this macro based sheet, I get error.
Though i pass the right password it through's error.
Error is "ORA-06413: Connection not open"
Where as if i try the same user name and password in toad it works.
I see that in my system i don't have "ORACLE Provider for OLE DB" and i also don't have "Oracle DB Driver".
I downloaded 64-bit Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC) Downloads from the bellow link
[http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/windows/downloads/index-090165.html]
But it had install file as install.bat and configure.bat and on clicking nothing much happened.
I also tried using the bellow link
