Of course there are, but those files are the C runtime library and the OLE library provided c/o Windoze.
Please read the installation manual with respect to any issues there are (none).
Oracle 8.0 will soon be fully desupported, Oracle 7 has been desupported.
Don't know what you're up to, especially as 8i has so many useful features, you feel handicapped without them.
