ODBC - why so much overhead?

565014Mar 2 2007 — edited Mar 4 2007
I want to connect to an Oracle (10g) database through MSAccess to give some non-techie (remote) users a really simple UI to insert/update data for a short period of time. It's not economical to write an interface for them, and they don't have the machine power, time or expertise to install the entire, enormous Oracle app just to connect to the database? I looked into squirrel too, but even that's too complicated and big for users to install themselves.

Is there a more lightweight solution out there? (This is why I asked the developers to use mysql... but too late now ...)
