Re: SQLTalk and SQL*Plus ORACLE

Apologies if this has already been answered I lost track of
this thread.

I was put in a position to work in an evironment which had
both the tools (SQLTalk and SQL*PLus working). I have no
knowledge of what had to be put in place for SQLTalk to
interact with ORACLE. I assume it got created as a part of
MAXIMO(PSDI) install.

I recall seeing a CD which contained the ORACLE Client
software. This offcourse is your reqular SQL*Plus front
end stuff with tnsnames.ora files. If you have any ORACLE
developer/server CD's I assume you should be able to
install SQL*Plus on your client machine using the installer.
The most recent one's come with the SQLnet Easy Config which
lets you define the Target Oracle Server.

Once again, I had connections to the ORACLE DB at the same time
from SQLTalk and SQL*Plus and reaped the advantages of both
during.

HTH
