The Actual ODBC Driver for Oracle lets you use Microsoft Excel and FileMaker Pro to import data from your company's Oracle database.
The driver includes a setup assistant that will walk you through setting up a connection to your database. On-line help is always available to provide explanations of all parameters. For simple connections, you only need to specify 2 fields! All installation takes place on your Mac - nothing is installed on the server.
Everything you need to connect to your database is included with the installer - there's no need to install the Oracle client software or edit configuration files. You just need to know the IP address of your server and the name of your database. The driver will connect to any Oracle database version 7.3.4 or later, running on any server platform.
