Since I don't know what application you are using, I see two potential problem areas. First, you need to use an Oracle6 ODBC driver to connect to an Oracle6 database. Second, a Windows 95 app (such as Access 7) requires a 32-bit ODBC driver, which you have, as well as a 32-bit SQL*Net Driver which you didn't mention. Oracle told me that a 32-bit SQL*Net driver was included in the Win 95 Personal Oracle 7 app which is downloadable from the Oracle web site. I haven't tried to set that up yet. FYI, I am just someone who was given the task of making it work and I have gathered some of this info along the way. Received on Tue Feb 13 1996 - 00:00:00 CET
