Truth: I am not that lazy for not doing any search on oracle.com for documentation.. The problem is about 32-bit client and 64-bit client coexisting..not abt the server... I have gone through the documentation already and I want an automatic way to do that as I wouldnot have the access to production sites...and DBA's/ Support folks wouldnt want to change the ORACLE_HOME using Oracle Selector.
