   When installing the client side software, you most likely    installed SQL*Net SPX for MS-Windows. This typically comes with the    Oracle 7 distribution for Netware. (although not always).

  If you have a valid SQL*Net for Windows license and have correctly   installed the software (SQLSPX.DLL is just one of the files)   then yes indeed you can do what you suggest. Note that when using   SQL*Net for Windows, SQLPME and SQLSPX for DOS are not used in   any way.

  Look for other files such as COREWIN.DLL and ORA7WIN.DLL. These   are also neccessary "Windows Support" files.

  As always, let me know if you'd like specific set up files   or if you have any other questions.
