Hello all,

using Excel '03.

A question on database connection:

I use Excel to import data from an Oracle database. I've setup two
connections to the database server -- a .dsn connection and a .odc
connection. E.g., (SERVERNAME.dsn), (SERVERNAME.odc)

I'm inquiring if anyone knows the main difference between the two;
e.g., speed, performance, etc.

I established both connections with Access (I've never been able to do
it with just Excel).

Both connections use a Microsoft ODBC driver.

Thanks for any response.
