Hi All
Well I have ascertained that the principal reason that I am unable to connect
to a DB using OO is that Java is not installed in OO. Java is installed on
the computer but the OO-1.9 installation did not recognize this so now the
first issue is how does one install Java into OO.
Since there is a principal reason there must by necessity be as least one more
reason which I am sorry to say is another installation issue of software into
OO. It also appears that even though there are drivers for JDBC installed in
OO-1.1 which is also installed on this box that OO-1.9 does not recognize
these drivers existence so again the question is how does one go about
installing these drivers into OO.
Thanks
Frank
PS the issue is not where to down load Java or the drivers or which Java and
drivers are needed but in how to install both Java and the JDBC drivers.
