Its not my choice, I'm afraid.  I'm helping out a user who in turn is at the mercy of his IT dept.

Myself, I've always used the Oracle ODBC drivers you refer to, back to CF 4.5.

One other thought.  Is there any reason why you are not using the Oracle ODBC driver that comes with the Oracle client?  We've seen the occasional odd error using the Merant driver and prefer to use the Oracle driver whenever possible.

Subject: Oracle9, CF5 and Merant drivers

I hopefully just finished a marathon with a user trying to use CF5 and
Oracle 9.  They were having problems we eventually worked out, but I saw
this preceding every error message:

[MERANT][ODBC Oracle 8 driver] ... error message goes here ...

It looks from the above that they're running an Oracle 8 driver on
Oracle 9?  Its been awhile since I've seen a copy of CF5.  Were there
separate Oracle 8 and 9 drivers in CF5?  Is this the correct, default
one to use on o9i?

Anyone out there with CF5 that can shed some light?
