Run-time error '3706': Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed

Hi,

I am trying to connect to oracle using MSAccess VBA code. I defined the following string:

"Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;User id=????;Password=???;Data Source=????"

when I run the code, here is the error i get:

Run-time error '3706': Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed.

Just as a note that I am able to run the code using other drivers such as "Driver={Microsoft ODBC for Oracle};Server=????;Uid=???;Pwd=???" but i want to figure what is the problem with the other provider.

currently, Oracle Client 11.2 is running on my machine.

Any though?
