A co-worker, neither a dba nor a developer, was able to successfully install 8.1.7 Personal Edition on 98 with no problems at all. I wonder if the same would work on ME, since 98SE and ME are like twin brothers from what I can tell.

Just a quickie, please, folks -

I have used Win NT4 for years, but have now got Win98SE on a second PC. (Don't mention XP...)

Which versions of Oracle will load to 98? Single user only, stand-alone machine (no networking). On attempting to load 7.3.4 an 'unsuported' message pops up, which wasn't exactly confidence inspiring...

thanks,

peter
