Sybrand,

  They have some old VB written apps that they want to run. Isn't sqlplusw.exe only available in the full client version and not in the instant client?
I will be looking at Isqlplus, just need to see how it is configured on the server (dont want too many connections,processes running etc). Someone suggested htmldb. We use it but the current version doesn't fully allow for click and see data etc. The new beta does support more of this functionality. It uses a web browser like Isqlplus. Just trying to mimimize what gets installed and then supported on these PC's
