Hi
You don't need to declare the database name after @ bec's @
automatically recognise the database by default. You may use the db name if
you want to.
Try out.

>> Hi,

>> I am trying to access an oracle database in an Unix Machine from my

>> 4) Development tool = Metrowerks Codewarrior 4.0
>> 5) JDK = 1.2
>> 6) JSDk = 2.0
