Hi,

I'd like to add. You can set TWO_TASK variable pointed to 7.3 SID.Don't forget to start listener and configure sqlnet 2. Then you can create DB objects of Oracle*tools in oracle 73 using software 72 as a client. That;'s quite easy.
Please, drop me the if you have any questions.

I think, you could use Oracle Server 7.3.2.3 and Oracle Tools from 7.2.3.
I dont want to tell about the others versions and can say nothing about 7.3.3.3.0.
We haven't tested one with our applications.

Good Luck.
