Re: Installation of Oracle 8.1.7 on WIn 2000 does not start

Hi Peter,

That's because my PC has recently died and I'm using my old work laptop that has my old work email address still defined (I only left Oracle 3 months ago !!) They kindly denoted it as part of my farewell !!

I wondered why my SPAM emails had all but disappeared ...

And I agree that many don't realise what an amazing resource the google archives are and that's why I don't really mind re-telling folks, although it's getting harder to do so in an original manner.

Cheers

Richard
