Hi Joe,
your question "why have multiple..." is not for me. The question was "if it is possible to have ..." and I gave the answer, no more no less. Different people has different requirements. Now, when Det knows that it is possible to have several oracle homes, and also it's possible to have one client for different DB versions he can make his own choice, up to his situation.
