Are you just trying to setup an ODBC conenction?
In Control Panel, you should see an icon for an ODBC manager where you can add dns entries . You STILL will need to install Oracle client. Use the db alias name for the Service name in the ODBC setup.
On 95, I believe that there are 2 sets of Oracle ODBC drivers, one put out by Oracle and the other by Microsoft..... funny but I remember we had to use the Microsoft drivers because we had problems with the Oracle ones.....
That's all I really remember, but feel free to get me off list for more specifics if you need them.

Subject: Oracle ODBC On Windows95 (Don't ask) :)
I need to setup a ODBC connection to an Oracle 8.1.7 database
over TCP/IP where the Client PC's are running Windows 95 (Old
clunkers)
Anyone know what I need to do for this? Can I use the 7.3 ODBC
drivers written for Windows95 for connection to a 8.1.7?
I've never done this before and can't find any clear answers
about it on Oracles website.
Would be immensly gratefull for an answer of any kind, even
if it is a "no-can do", then I would know that I dont have
to put any more effort into this :)
Thanks!
