  2. Enter the ODBC connection string. Below is a connection string using the default DSN created when you install the driver: Provider=MSDASQL.1;Persist Security Info=False;DSN=CData OracleSCM Source

  3. Enter the SELECT statement to import data with. For example:

    SELECT CarrierId, CarrierName FROM Carriers WHERE ActiveFlag = 'false'

  4. Enter credentials, if required, and click Connect. The results of the query are displayed in the Query Editor Preview. You can combine queries from other data sources or refine the data with Power Query formulas. To load the query to the worksheet, click the Close and Load button.
