I hate to disappoint you Scott, but this feature will only work on Windows NT. I was in your situation, and it took me two days to figure that out after I tried everything possible to make the web previewer work on my Windows 95 machine. If you look into the release notes that come with Developer 6.0, you will see a small paragraph about that. It states that in Win95/98 the web previewer button is visible, but not working, and that it will be fixed in the next release of the Developer. What I don't understand is how in the world a program with such a "feature" was released in the first place? Have the Oracle folks heard anything about Quality Assurance?
