I'm having problems changing the 'Vendor Init' Parameter of BDE's ORACLE
driver. I'm using the correct BDE API procedures, but they constantly
refuse to recognize the existence of this parameter. It might be that it
doesn't appear in IDAPI32.CFG, but that raises some other question
marks...

Any Ideas ?

The vendor init setting only lists alternatives if they are installed.  You
need to install the requisite Oracle support files first...you can then
select from the drop-down-listbox any of the appropriate oracle DLLs.  They
are typically things like ORA7WIN.DLL, ORA73WIN.DLL, etc.

In short, your problem is probably a lack of properly installed oracle
client software.
