RE: connect on oracle database
Either MS ODBC or Oracle driver can do the connectivity. I found out that MS ODBC is more user-friendly.

Sybase and Informix are not actually applications - they are Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMSs) that are competitors to Oracle.

RE: Problems with CharArrayType after upgrade from 7.3.4 to 8.1.7
VARCHAR is the older version. VARCHAR2 is for 8.0 and above. Changing from VARCHAR to VARCHAR2 for 8.1.7 will solve the problem. -Original Message- Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2001 11:47 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L 8.1.7.1 Cherie, I have no idea if this could be the case, but I noticed that the type is based on the datatype VARCHAR, not VARCHAR2. According to the docs, this shouldn't make a difference, but they've been warning since the introduction of VARCHAR2 that they may do something different with VARCHAR at some point in the future, so it's best not to use it. From the PL/SQL manual: === VARCHAR2 Subtypes The VARCHAR2 subtypes below have the same range of values as their base type. For example, VARCHAR is just another name for VARCHAR2. STRING VARCHAR You can use these subtypes for compatibility with ANSI/ISO and IBM types. Note: Currently, VARCHAR is synonymous with VARCHAR2. However, in future releases of PL/SQL, to accommodate emerging SQL standards, VARCHAR might become a separate datatype with different comparison semantics. So, it is a good idea to use VARCHAR2 rather than VARCHAR. === Again, I don't see how that could affect the code...just a shot in the dark.
