You can create a Universal Installer response file which will automate the client
installation. You can mount the CD on a network device, or just copy it to a disk on
a server so that you don't have to walk the CD to each PC.
e.g. setup.exe -responsefile "l:\apps\oracle\816\User_Cdrive.rsp"
Search around on the CD for the sample files. The active lines in our response file
are:
FROM_LOCATION="g:\installs\oracle\816client\STAGE\PRODUCTS.JAR"
ORACLE_HOME="C:\Oracle\Ora816"
ORACLE_HOME_NAME="Oracle_816"
TOPLEVEL_COMPONENT={"oracle.client","8.1.6.0.0"}

Hi,
I develop applications with Delphi 5 Client/Server suit. I used Oracle Database.
(with BDE connection) I have a problem with client side. To run my program on some
client machine , I install oracle client for this machine. Is there any way to run my
program on client without installing oracle client. BECAUSE , when client number
increase , my job become difficult , every time I take oracle client CD and install
one machine then install other machine ...( I do not give oracle cd to clients
beacause client do not know configuration)
is there simple way to make setup disk with including my application file plus oracle
client files to install client side ?
I hope you will understand my question.
Thank You.
