   Hi,   
      
   I am TOTALLY new to all this stuff and really hope to find help here.   
      
   I have to come up with a solution for one of my client.   
      
      
   They use HP-UX and Pro/5   
      
   What I'm trying to do:   
   Using Pro/5.  Make a SQL ( select ) statement to an ORACLE database.   
      
      
   What I need to know and do:   
   - Find an OBDC driver that will allow me to connect to the ORACLE database.   
   - Configure what file ? ( config.tpm, obdc.ini, sql.ini ) are all these   
   files important ??  What should they look like ? Have any example of those   
   file for an Oracle database.   
      
   ==========================   
   I just need to install a simple test oracle database and query a table from   
   pro/5.   
      
   All this is so new, my question might seem to much work to explain, but I   
   read a lot on many website, but can't make things to work ... can't find an   
   obdc .. don't know how to configure it anyway ... I need help please.   
      
   I know it is possible to query an Unix-Oracle Database from  Pro/5 (NOT   
   VPRO5) , I just need help of someone who did this already.   
      
      
      
      
   Thanks !
