oracle versions conflict

[paperino]

Hello guys!
Excuse me for my terrible english!!

Well...
I've a problem with plsql developer
version 6.0.4.906
I've got 2 oracle client installation on my
computer: oracle 7.3 client and oracle 10g client.
After the oracle 10g client installation, plsql
cannot connect to both but only to 10g!
Looking at PL/SQL beautifier Option i can see
relatively to ORACLE HOME OPTION the 10g client
specification and relatively to OCI library the
10g's oci.dll path only.

Thanks for your help.
bye.

Hello,

Oracle 10 client does not support databases below 9i . To connect to oracle 7 you should switch to Ora7 home. You can use Oracle Locator Express which is a small free utility with which you can switch the default Oracle Home on-the-fly, just like the Oracle Home Selector does (including 10g).

Greetings
