On Windows 9x Microsoft assumed that you would want to bridge your ODBC 16-bit applications to the latest 32-bit drivers if such were available and so they included a gneric thunk for 16-bit ODBC. You can still install and configure the 16-bit SQL*Net client and create a DSN (using the 16-bit ODBC administrator) and use that DSN from within your 16-bit application. For Oracle, this is the suggested path as there were some odd problems that could arise if you tried to use the 32-bit drivers from a 16-bit program.

The 16-bit oracle home directory is (and must remain) separate from the 32-bit oracle home.
