Hi Denham,

A word of warning:  We used to have an app that used an Oracle 7.3.4 DB on
NT 4.0 SP5.  After the *second* datafile corruption in less than a month, we
moved the DB to OpenVMS where it happily lived out it's usefulness.  (Thanks
to a proper setup, we were able to completely recover in both cases)

Dump NT, especially for Oracle7.  Put it on some Unix flavor or OpenVMS.
It's either a little pain now, or a lotta pain later.

Good luck!

Hi Gurus,

I have annihilated our test system trying to achieve this. Does anyone have
any links to sites or Metalink which documents this.
What I have done is try to load two versions of Oracle 7.3.4 and 8.1.6 onto
an NT system.
I did the obvious by placing the versions in their own Oracle Base
directories and different Oracle Names.
I have a suspicion that the registry is where the two cannot share their
settings?!

Anyway any guidance will be appreciated.
Many Thanks
Denham
