This may be a possibilities. But it may not as well.

Oracle TimeStamp/DateTime datatype has existed for quite sometime (since I can remember in Oracle 5). It has been recognized and worked with Powerbuilder Version 1 back in early 1992. Currently we are using Powerbuilder 6.5. The ODBC driver that we used for Powerbuilder is supplied during Oracle 9i installation (Oracle in OraHome92). I believe that the Oracle driver that we used for WebLogic/Java is also supplied during Oracle installation as well.

Please advise.

Thanks!
