Newest versions will support native drivers for Oracle 9 and 10 as well as ADODB and JDBC connections. Please note that with the current version you can still connect to Oracle 9/10 if you have Oracle required support files installed with the client. You can also always use an ODBC connection to connect to any version of the Oracle database. All these connections require either preconfigured connection string saved in TNSNAMES.ORA or a fully specified connection string in the db connection properties. This is and was always possible with Oracle, you just need to enter the entire connect string as a single line into the Server property. : I am currently using some JAL scripts that connect to
: Oracle databases. I was trying to use LDAP for database
: resolution instead of the TNSNAMES file but it appears to
: me that since the connection is "Oracle 8.0.4 - 8i and later"
: it can not work because LDAP resolution is 8i and above the
: connection has to be compatible with version 8.0.4. : The easy workaround is of course to just use the TNSNAMES.ORA : There are currently Oracle 7.3, Oracle 8.0.0-8.0.4, and the
: Oracle 8.0.4 - 8i and later options to select from for the
: databsae connection. Is there a plan to update that to
: something newer like having an Oracle 8.0.4 - 8i and
: and Oracle 9i and later or something along those lines? : Thanks, : John
