Developer 2000 and 8.0.4 Install Problem

[Quoted] [Quoted] I've installed Oracle 8.0.4 and verified that the DB works OK. I can connect with the sqlplus client on NT to Oracle 8 using the ANDREW_DB alias [Quoted] I created using the Net80 Admin tool. The Net80/tnsnames.ora entry looks like...
ANDREW_DB.WORLD =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = NMP)(SERVER = ANDREW)(PIPE = ORAPIPE))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ORCL))
)
I installed Developer 2000 1.6.1 into the ORACLE_HOME 8.0.4 directory. I
could not get the forms designer to connect to the database. I noticed in
the release notes later that you are not supposed to install both into the
same ORACLE_HOME. It tells you to...
Install DB
Install Developer 2000
Reinstall Required Support files
I tried doing it this way but there is some service running core40.dll that [Quoted] prevents you from refreshing the support files and this is in spite of shutting down all the Oracle services that are running.
I next tried installing into a new Oracle_HOME but all that happened is the [Quoted] 8.0.4 software becomes disabled.
Is there a way to run developer and the db from two distinct oracle homes on [Quoted] the same NT box? Does this version of Developer 2000 work at all with this [Quoted] version of the database. It seems as if Oracle has switched to a new [Quoted] version of sql*net - Net80 but the tools are using something older. If this [Quoted] is true then they should be shot. I have never had difficulties like this [Quoted] installing supposedly canned software.
Any advice appreciated
There is another tnsnames.ora in a Network directory in ORACLE_HOME. The
other entry that is there is
ANDREW.world =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS =
(COMMUNITY = nmp.world)
(PROTOCOL = NMP)
(Server = ORACLE)
(Pipe = ORAPIPE)
)
)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ORCL)
)
