[Quoted] If you're going to be using a 9i Oracle client to access the data, I'd strongly recommend using the Oracle driver. The Microsoft driver hasn't been tested with the 9i client, and a number of folks on the Oracle Technology Network forums have reported that it doesn't work (i.e. won't connect). I don't believe Microsoft has any plans to fix this, since they haven't been working on their Oracle driver for years.
