This ceased to be installed after 9.2 I'm afraid. Oracle 10g installed
differently o n Windows and I seem to remember having to run the
installer each time I wanted to change the version of client I needed to
use.
It was working perfectly until 10g came along, but then Oracle changed
it - and basically removed the Windows equivalent of "oraenv" so loved
by us Unix bods. A retrograde step in my (occasionally humble) opinion!
Cheers,
Norm.
