Oracle provider for OLE DB does not appear under Data Sources in Windows Server 2008
I did get a good "Test Connection" using "Microsoft OLE DB provider for Oracle" under Data Sources (the database is running on the local machine, from a different drive). I'm not sure at this point which version of ODAC I need, whether 11.2.0.3 client is a problem with an 11.2.0.1 database. The XCOPY version of ODAC is smaller (50Mb), but the OUI version seems like the way to go. I don't want any developer tools, I just want the driver that Excel (32-bit) recognizes. Any info appreciated.
