Most likely but they may have differnt names etc and I know that SQLServer
doesn't folling it that closely

Anyways I have created a 7 line patch for dbi added it to DBD and then I
was able to get scrolling recordsets to work DBD:ORacle (though I am still
getting the kinks out of it).

All I had to do was write
1) create a sub called fetch_scroll in Oracle.PL This calles ora_fetch_scroll
2) ora_fetch_scroll is a sub in .xs that sets the attribute values in the
statement struc and then call the dbd_st_fetch
3) I of course had to add a few new properties in the statement
4) I also had to make a small other change to set up the execute as well

So it is not that hard to do.

No I just have to get Tim to agree to the DBI patch
