Hi Raff
So if I have multiple XP servers connecting to the Datastore via a direct
connection with different versions of the oracle client. This should not cause
problems?
I have just moved to a new company and the servers are using 9.2,8.1.7 or
8.1.57.
I have always thought it best to keep them on the same version.(kind of like
"don't tempt Murphy"). Am I being overly cautious?
Thanks
Cherie
