SQL Server 2005 9.0.3080
I want to create a linked server but don't see "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" provider in the drop down menu in Linked Server Properties. How can I add it?

Thanks!

Yes, I found it on Google but it requires to install Oracle client software on the computer that is running SQL Server. Isn't there anything other way to do this?
