Re: Listing Previous Installations of Oracle and its Components

Hi,
If you have the SYS rights granted to you, you can use the following command to
get a listing of the currently installed Oracle software;

SELECT * FROM V$VERSION; It doesn't give you a listing of previous versions, but since most Oracle software provides
you with upward compatibility, it is not very likely that you'll encounter any serious problems
using e.g. older SQL-scripts on a recent (v7.3, v8.0) database.  Good Luck
