No.  Win3.1 and higher means 16 bit.  So Win95 would not be considered 'higher'
in this case.  You need to install the win95 client.  You will have to get the
32 bit drivers from Oracle probably.  You can get the 32 bit ODBC drivers from
http://technet.oracle.com/main.htm.  Goto the downloads section (after
registering).  Unfotrunately, most of that page deal with ORacle 8 so there are
very few free Oracle 7.2 stuff there.  You might have to use the Oracle 7.3
drivers to access it.  I do not know what the availablity of Oracle7.2 32 bit
drivers for Win95 is.  Sorry about that.

If there is somebody up there could they throw me down a line.  Just a
little helping hand just a little understanding.  Just some answers to the
questions that surround me now.  If there's somebody up there could
