I got this using OCI80 -
Oracle 8.0.4 EntEd on NT4 SP3 Y2K,Euro,Java,etc hotfixes I thought I was using O8, or at least that's what it says on the CD...

OCIStmtPrepare(....OCI_V8_SYNTAX, OCI_DEFAULT) OCIStmtExecute(....OCI_COMMIT_ON_SUCCESS) returns:
"ORA-01011: Cannot use v7 compatability mode when talking to a v6 server"

I don't recall seeing this mentioned in the FM!

I worked around with OCI_V7_SYNTAX, and OCI_NTV_SYNTAX worked too.
"But _why_, dad, _whhhyyyyy???......"
