 On Windows, can I have 10G R1 and R2 installed in separate homes or is

Interesting question, I have also wondered about that.

For those of you not forced ^H^H^H^H^H^H privileged to work on Windows,
the structure of the registry entries changed in 10g.

It would appear that a new key would be created for each new Oracle home,
so I would guess multiple 10g installations would work just fine.  I just
have
not tried it.

eg.  my laptop has a HKLM/Oracle/KEY_OraDb10g_home1 key

If another copy/version of Oracle 1-g were installed, a new registry
key of KEY_OraDb10g_home2 would be created.
