All,

We're in the process of upgrading our databases to release 10.2.0.3.0
on HP Tru64 machines.  I downloaded the database server installation
file, read the installation guide and installed the software.  One of
the choices during the installation was 'Oracle Programmer', which I
checked.

On past installations, this included the ProC and ProCobol executables.
For this installation, it doesn't.  There is a note in the installation
guide that says it doesn't include the client.  I didn't actually drill
down on the Oracle Programmer choice, so I don't know if there was
something else there or not.

I did download the Oracle client for 10.2.0.2.0 and can install it, too,
but it says I can't install it into an existing ORACLE_HOME.  Is that
really true?

Any suggestions...did I miss something that should be so very obvious?

Thanks,
