Re: Connecting Developer 2000 to PO8

Thanks to all who responded to my question about connecting Developer 2000 to PO8 on a Win95 machine. Someone has pointed me to a solution at

http://www.oracle.com/support/products/dev/windows/html/tips1.html

It took me a few false starts, but finally got it running. Thanks so much for the inputs, am getting this running so I can warm up for the FORMS I class in a couple of weeks !!

Thanks
Richard Kessler
