[Quoted] [Quoted] I have an Oracle8 NT server here, now I want to be able to connect to this server from a Win95 PC via ODBC.

Is there any kind of free Oracle client? If not, where can I get a cheap Oracle8 Client?

In my win95 PC control panel, I noticed that I have the following two drivers:

Microsoft ODBC driver for Oracle: 2.00.00.6325 MSORCL10.DLL 01/00/97

Microsoft ODBC for Oracle: 2.573.3513.00 msorcl32.dll 11/05/98

But when I try to add DNS from these drivers, it tells me I can not do it until
I install an Oracle client. Is there a walk around to this situdation? Or do I have to buy
expensive Oracle client licences?
