Sorry it took me so long to reply, but this is what I know of the problem. Please keep in mind that the ORACLE reference number was valid at the time of the original posting that follows. Please, let me know if you get this message. I hope it's helpful. ***************************************************************************** Subject: SAS-Oracle Interface Keywords: Ready, Bugs, SAS, Oracle ********* Date: 16 Aug 90 20:18:15 GMT ********* Distribution: local Organization: Applied Research Laboratories, University of Texas at Austin. Oracle-Problems: (415)341-3003 Primary Contact Only SAS-Problems: (919)677-8008 Primary Contact Only (again) The Supplement to the SAS/ACCESS Interface to Oracle has been installed. There are some known problems with the two-task driver, which is how SAS communicates with Oracle, which disallows the SAS system to access Oracle more than one time per SAS session via SAS/ACCESS View. SAS claims that Oracle is working on the problem, and that the SAS/ACCESS interface should work as soon as Oracle fixes the bug. For a status report, call Oracle tech support (415)341-3003, and memtion Oracle bug number 29128. If that doesn't clear things up, call Oracle marketing at (919)677-8000 and ask for Lisa Rohlof. Refer to the problem as the "two-task driver issue". *************************************************************************** -- DISCLAIMER?
