Hi Brian,
Yes set the PATH variable to include the location of the instant client
home. I have used the instant client by just setting the TNS_ADMIN and
PATH variable.
Let us know if that works for you.

I downloaded the instant client. Unzippped it in C:\instantclient_11_2

Created a network\admin directory in C:\instantclient_11_2 and put a
tnsnames and sqlnet ora file in the admin directory
So now I have C:\instantclient_11_2\network\admin path
The directions say to create an TNS_ADMIN environment variable with that
location which I did. This is all to create an ODBC connection.
Do I still need to add C:\instantclient_11_2 to the PATH variable?
Or I saw another post that specified an ORACLE_HOME variable. Do I need
to set that as well?
