You are using the MS Oracle ODBC driver. This driver has the name of the central Oracle dll hardcoded in it. It very much looks like you

are using the MS Oracle ODBC 2.5 driver, which interfaces because of
this stupid design, to Oracl 7.3 only. Use the Oracle ODBC drivers or
find an update Microsux driver.
