The Connect dialog box enables you to connect to an Oracle or non-Oracle data source.
This dialog box contains:
User Name |
Type your database user ID, not to exceed 512 bytes. You can also type your entire connect string, but your password will be echoed. For example:
|
Password |
Type your database password, not to exceed 30 bytes. To protect password security, there is no echo in this field. |
Database |
Type the name of the database, as defined in your tnsnames.ora file. This can be the name of a local database, or a communication protocol that enables you to access a remote database. The communication protocol you enter depends upon your operating system. For more details, refer to your Oracle Net Services documentation for your system or consult your DBA. |
Connect |
Confirms the information you have supplied and attempts a connection. If the database connection is successful, the dialog box closes. If the database connection is not successful, an error is issued. |
