Sql pass thru queryPROC SQL; CONNECT TO ORACLE(USER=MYUID ORAPW=MYPASSWORD PATH='@OraInfo'); SELECT * FROM CONNECTION TO ORACLE (SELECT * FROM MYSCHEMA.NBR_DAYS_TO_DATE_LKUP); DISCONNECT FROM ORACLE; QUIT;

What you need to know
What you need to know Schema = option
In Microsoft Access, when connecting to Oracle tables, the Schema name is identified as the text to the left of the period.
The best way to find out is to go to the source, your Oracle DBA

Alternatives
So what if I dont have SAS/Access for Oracle?
Using ODBC drivers Syntax for Libname statement
LIBNAME MYORALIB ODBC DSN=MyOracle UID=MYUID PW=MYPASSWORD SCHEMA=MYSCHEMA; PROC SQL; CONNECT TO ODBC(DSN=MyOracle UID=MYUID PW=MYPASSWORD); SELECT * FROM CONNECTION TO ODBC (SELECT * FROM FIN1MGR.NBR_DAYS_TO_DATE_LKUP); DISCONNECT FROM ODBC; QUIT;
Syntax for pass-thru SQL query
Conclusion SAS offers a variety of ways to access data that is stored in Oracle. Work with your Oracle DBA to assistance with connection questions. Utilize the numerous Users Group papers on the subject of methods and efficiencies accessing Oracle data.
