I downloaded oracle8i but the download was corrupt (llast time I } download using windows) and I do NOT fancy starting again. Just like the *NIX folks, NT folks have to install the 8i client on the w3 server. There is no magic "one file to make it work" in the NT world. Check out the recent discussions in this list and on php-windows for more details. If you don't want to download, I believe Oracle will sell you an 8i client on CD fairly cheap [just to cover shipping and such]. I know if you purchase Red Hat Linux you get a free 8i CD. :-) /vjl/ [one who perfers *NIX flavors more, but has been using DOS/Win & *NIX for over 13 years]
