Oracel not thread safe?

Is it true that Oracle for NT is not really thread safe? I have a program uses ODBC. After one thread connected to the data source, that data source's handle is not disconnected when the thread exists. When a new thread starts up, that data source handle is reused. According to ODBC docs, this is okay.

This works fine with SQL Server and MS Access ODBC drivers, but when I use any of the Oracle ODBC drivers, ORA72.DLL gets an access violation exception when a new thread tries to reuse a previous database connection handle.

I tried three ODBC drivers for Oracle: Visigenic (comes /w NT), Intersolve and the one downloaded from www.oracle.com. All three get the same exception.

Thank you
