You can get a full client installation guide for Oracle 9i at http://technet.oracle.com/documentation/oracle9i.html. You'll hve to inscribe to technet but it is totally free ... If you allready checked this out I can only advice you to try some different installs. Universal installer (the name already scares me) is one of the weak points of oracle. if you have got a CD with oracle on it try also looking in the install directory for a 'setup' or 'install' executable instead of the one in the root directory. For the rest I know that there has been a personal oracle specially for windows 98. Maybey you can install this client ? unfortunatly it is only available till Oracle 9i Release 1.. Hope this helps ... X ------------------------ "Oracle" <[email protected]> wrote: ------------------------ >Hello, >I am now finding oracle client a real challenge.
