Oracle error witrh Report Builder

Hi
I am doing reports and UDMs from a DW in Oracle and it is great (some
doubt expressed in another post).
I tried Report Builder but the new model wizard comes back with the
error:
ORA 02179: valid options: ISOLATION LEVEL { SERIALIZABLE | READ
COMMITTED }
The data source file (.ds) has been configured with most of the
connections to Oracle available (e.g. .NET Providers Oracleclient Data
provider; Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ORacle etc.) with same error.
The strange thing is that I can create the .dsv with no problem, browse
the tables, refresh with no problems.
What I am doing wrong?
cheers
EnzoYou are not doing anything wrong. Oracle is not supported for the Report
Builder (note that it is supported for the Report Designer).

1. Create linked server connection to Oracle database using the
OraOLEDB.Oracle provider(more up-to-date than Microsoft's).
2. Create a Data Source using the native SQL provider to the SQL Server
where you created in step 1.
3. Create a data source view; do not select objects.
4. Right-click in the DSV designer pane and create a New Named Query. Build
your query against the linked server (i.e. use 4-part names: select * from
linkedservername..schema.object). Repeat step 4 for each object you wish to
add to your model.
5. Add logical keys where applicable.
6. Build your model.
7. Deploy & build reports using Report Builder :-)
