Hi,

you should be able to access the database with code written in jdk1.3. I've done it using the thin driver for java 2. (classes12.zip). Didn't have to change any code that in its latest upgrade went from jdk1.2.1 to jdk1.3.0.

You will just have to be careful when doing things specifically made available in jkd1.3 in the java.sql class, but all you have to do is read the api's. If you just stick to what's available in the 1.2.x apis, then you shouldn't have any problems with Oracle.

hth,
cindy
