Jonnie,

If you're having difficulty installing and configuring,your ODBC driver, you might check out SimbaExpress, a server-hosted ODBC solution. SimbaExpress eliminates SQL*net from the desktop, and the Oracle ODBC driver we provide (our own) only has to be installed on your NT server. The client component (Win 3.x, 95, NT) is installed very quickly.
