    If the above recommendations fail, you could try to connect from a different machine.

    Venkat, thank you for hanging in there on this thread. 

    * I deleted the ODBC System drivers associated with Oracle BI Server.

    * I uninstalled the Admin tool.

    * I reinstalled the Admin tool.  No problems, all steps ran successfully, and it brought up the ODBC Data Source tool.

    * I created an ODBC System DSN with the same characteristics as before.

    * Then I launched the AdminTool from the new installation location.

    BINGO!  I can attach in online mode now.

    Whatever the problem was, it was fixed by deleting the old stuff and reinstalling it.

    Good thought, Sherry,  That one had not occurred to me.
