Michel,

In fact we have found some slight problems with our verion of SP Oracle (7.3.2). There is an init.ora parameter that should default to 1000 but defaults to 0 instead. (I'm sorry, I can't remember which one). There is also a bug with SQL*Loader using Direct option but they have come up with a patch (although test it: the first patch didn't work).

In general, however, you shouldn't have a problem. We have both running with no problems (although we're moving to SP as fast as possible for obvious support purposes).
