Barry, I've read the the oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver is depricated (I tried it anyway though with no luck). I think I know the error to which you refer having the jar in both places (creates different classes), but that isn't it either. Filip pointed me to (http://people.apache.org/~fhanik/jdbc-pool/) which has the .jar it looks like I need. But, I'm worried about the safety of using code that is outside normal distribution in a production system. Any thoughts? Thanks.
