Yes. That is to say, I've done it. However, unless you've got access to the Win95/NT version of Pro*C (which I don't), you have to do it all with OCI calls.

The OCI which comes with Personal Oracle 7 (and I would assume 8) is set up as DLLs in the oracle_home/bin directory, with stub libraries elsewhere (I don't have it in front of me at the moment).

It does work, or at least, it does for me.
