Glenda--

A SQL pass-thru query will only work if the authentication information
is appended to the query connection string. You could try asking your
Oracle DBA to remove security from the table(s) in question for the
purposes of your query, but that won't happen with any DBA's I've ever
known. ;-) But all is not lost; you may be able to do a two-step
process, depending on factors such as how current the data needs to be.
That is, you can create the pass-thru query with its attendant
authentication information in one secure Access DB and use it to, say,
make a table containing the Oracke data, then you can get to *that* made
table from the public Access application. Just an idea...

I don't have a connection string. I was thinking a pass-thru query would
be the answer but it seems to me that it stores the username and
password with the query which I can't do.  If you have a couple of
ideas, I'd be grateful for the help Cathy. /g=3D20

You can run the query automatically when the database is opened by
adding it to autoexec macro.  Is that what you were looking for?  What
is your connection string?  I have seen a couple of ways to connect with
a username/password.

Hi All.

I want to do a pass-thru query to extract Oracle data but I'd like it to
run automatically when the DB is opened.  I can't store the password or
username in the query because several may use it.  Is this possible?

I can make a pass thru query in query design but don't know how to make
it always happen and prompt for the password and username.
