Lists all the data sources that have been installed. If the data source you want to use is not listed, it is likely that it has not been correctly added as a pluggable data source (PDS).
From the list, choose the type of data source that contains your information:
Express Server Query lets you create a query that selects data from an Express Server.
JDBC Query lets you access any JDBC-enabled data source.
OLAP Query lets you create a query that selects from multidimensional Oracle OLAP (on-line analytical processing) data stored in an Oracle database.
SQL Query lets you create a query that selects data from an Oracle relational database.
Text Query lets you create a query that selects data from a text pluggable data source.
XML Query lets you access an XML data file. You must have the DTD file to complete this process.
