I have resolved this with the assitance of the Quovadx support group (thanks) and thought that I would post the resolution for the edification of those that may benefit in the future.
We had the SequeLink snap-on installed without installing the associated program on the target database server. The resolution – after deciding we did not want to install the SequeLink Server on each server hosting a database to which Quovadx was to connect – was to run the install again from the CD and select the Connect 4.2 option. Connect 4.2 does not work in the same two-tier type of architecture space as SequeLink. Therefore, we only need to run Connect 4.2 on Quovadx, define the database addresses in the tnsnames.ora, configure the odbc.ini file, and write the code to make the connection.
FYI.
