Charles,

    8.0.5 will work on Win2K, I've got it still installed and have no problems. 
BUT, if your DB is 8.1.x then you're loosing some features by not upgrading the
client.  As a for instance, the 8.0.5 SQL*Plus client will not support the
"execute immediate" statememnt in PL/SQL.  The 8.1.6 will.

Hi Listeners,

Do you recommend the latest version of the Oracle client for the
desktop?

Our current standard is Oracle 8.0.5.  In preparation for Windows 2000,
we would like to migrate to a new version sometimes this
year.  Is there a version you suggest we look at?

Thanks in advance,

Charles Yuan
