Oracle 64-bit and database connectivity toolkit

Hello- I am attempting to connect to an Oracle database by interfacing the databse connectivity toolkit with the Oracle 10.2.0.3 64-bit that my customer uses. I am running LV13 32-bit on their machine. I am unable to connect to the database. Are there any known issues with this type of setup?

There's some discussion about an unsupported method to use the Database Connectivity Toolkit with 64-bit Windows here: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/64-bit-Database-Toolkit/idi-p/2170088

That may help with the problem you're seeing.  Something else to consider is the manual (page 1-2):

The Microsoft ODBC driver for Oracle and the Microsoft OLE DB
Provider for Oracle do not support BLOB (binary) data types. You
cannot use Oracle with the Database Connectivity Toolkit for binary
data with these drivers. Instead, use the OLE DB Provider and ODBC
driver that Oracle provides. Refer to the Oracle Web site at
www.oracle.com for more information about the OLE DB Provider
and the ODBC driver that Oracle provides
