Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_ENV Failed
I have an error: "Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_ENV Failed" that appears when I try to connect to Oracle Database using MS Excel. Odbc connection works and can connect. I have read up on FAQ on Oracle and have tried the following suggestions:
1. Re-Installed Oracle Client, not working
2. Checked PATH env variable, it is correct
3. Checked and changed permissions, not working
When I use the test on my ODBCAD32.exe, it works and can connect. Even PL/SQL Developer client can connect to Oracle. It is just MS Office and Qlikview that does not want to connect. Qlikview gives me the following error:
"SQL##f - SqlState:IM014,ErrorCode:0

Hi Imnorie,
I have checked the driver and have installed several versions, i.e. Oracle 9.2, Oracle 10.2.0.4, Oracle 10.2.0.3 and the same is experienced.
My Operating system is Windows 7 64bit. The Oracle driver is a 32 bit driver, the 64 bit driver does not install as it sees my version as too new for its liking.
This is manual, not in code.
ODBC Test works. PL/SQL connection works. It is just MS Excel and Qlikview that does not like it.
My System variable for PATH is set to the following:
C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\c
This looks correct as far as the suggestions on the internet advises.
I am doing it from MS Excel 2007 -> Data -> Get External Data -> From Other Sources -> From Microsoft Query -> Select ODBC setup for Oracle and then it gives me the error.

Try installing Qlikview x64 (64-bit version) and that should hopefully take take of the issue.
