In my experience, the Oracle native drivers return a different error message
than the ODBC error messages - they're even more obtuse. In fact, the
Allaire knowledge base recommends using ODBC instead of native drivers when
you're trying to figure out why something isn't working.

CF never really communicates directly with the database, as I believe
SQL*Plus does. It returns whatever message the middleware layer sends, as
far as I can tell.
