I have installed Oracle Express (XE, version 18) on a Windows 10 (64-bit) machine with Office 365 (32-bit) installed. I have installed the correct Oracle Instant Client (18_3) and its ODBC package (32-bit versions). I successfully created a DSN using the ODBC Data Source Administrator (32-bit) tool in windows.
When I attempt to link tables into an Access database, I get error ORA: 01013. If I remove the timeout from the DSN configuration, it simply spins with the Oracle RDBMS kernel eating up CPU cycles for as long as I'm willing to sit and wait.
I have to be missing a configuration parameter somewhere on either the Oracle side or the Microsoft side, or I'm missing a Microsoft component. MS Visual Studio C++ redestributables for 2010, 2013, and 2017 are already present and Microsoft updates indicates that my .NET framework is up to date.
I have attempted this same task with Oracle 12c and instant clients 12_1 and 12_2. In both cases, the behavior is the same.
Any and all ideas sincerely appreciated!
