SUMMARY
The client/server features of Visual FoxPro 5.0 are compatible with any version of Oracle's SQL*Net and any Oracle ODBC driver, although some functionality may be limited by the capabilities of the driver.



MORE INFORMATION
Visual FoxPro 5.0 was tested with SQL*Net version 1.0 on Windows NT using the Visigenics Oracle ODBC driver that ships with Visual FoxPro. The Visigenics Oracle ODBC driver works on Windows NT only.

SQL*Net is Oracle's network communication software. The client/server features of Visual FoxPro (including the Upsizing Wizard) work with any version of Oracle SQL*Net.

Refer to Oracle's documentation for instruction on installing SQL*Net. To verify that SQL*Net has installed correctly and is working from the client, use an Oracle client tool, such as SQL*DBA, to connect to the Oracle server.
