This is quite broad.  What problems are you having?

Hi,
I also can not get to work SQL Links (comming with Delphi 3.0) with Personal
Oracle 7.2.
I think that problem is with BDE Alias. E.g. when I create an alias of name
"DEFAULT"
and try to connect i get error : ORA-12154 " TNS unknown servis name:DEFAULT"
(or
something like that). I tried miscellanous settings when defining alias, but
nothing helps.

Is there anybody who running PO7.2 with SQL Links?

PS: Sorry for my english

I will assume that your SQL*Net configuration is correct and that you can
successfuly connect to the database using SQL*Plus.  When creating your BDE
alias, use "2:" as the SERVER NAME.  This will connect to the default
database.

I have successfully run PO73 and O8PE with both BDE4 and BDE5.  PO72 should
work fine, although I have never tried it.
