SYMPTOMS
When installing ODBC drivers from the Visual C++ 4.1 CD-ROM, you may see the following error message:

Setup could not open the file:

"...\MSDEV\REDIST\ORACLE.HLP".



CAUSE
Setup is installing the Oracle ODBC driver that ships with Visual C++ and the help file for the driver is missing from the 4.1 CD-ROM.



RESOLUTION
Prior to running setup, copy Oracle.hlp from your Visual C++ 4.0 CD-ROM into your System32 (System in Windows 95) directory.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This bug was corrected in Visual C++ 32- bit Edition version 4.2.



MORE INFORMATION
This should not result in any loss of information. The Oracle.hlp file that shipped with Visual C++ 4.0 is the same file that shipped with version 4.1.
