I think it would probably be better to use the Oracle ODBC connector rather than the 
MS one.  I would put money that the MS driver isn't feature complete.

We run Oracle 8 here with CF5 Ent.  You have two choices.  CF Enterprise
comes with Native Oracle drivers.  You can also use the MS odbc drivers for
Oracle.  They are very solid and very fast.  I've read somewhere (can't
remember where) that the latest MS ODBC drivers for Oracle are actually
faster with CF than the Native.  We have Oracle running on IBM and as a
result, we have an issue with the Native drivers, so we use the Microsoft
ODBC exclusively.
