Not a problem...

I would use Oracle ODBC Driver 8.0.5.0.3
You goota ask for it...It's patched the 8.0.5.0.0 version
(Prevents buffer overflow errors, suopports LOB's ? more...)

Micrsofts driver is OK...
Beware SQLCOLUMNS returns different results with the two drivers...

www.oracle.com to get the drivers or
www.microsoft.com/data

VFP has 1 driver in the setup...

Just make sure you get drivers to UNIX....

Shouldn't really be any problems...
