Paul...we are using the 8.01.55.00 Oracle drivers currently. All the Oracle drivers we have tried have been a major headache for us. Turning off the LOBs resolved some of these issues, but oddball problems are still popping up occasionally. As I said in a previous thread we'll be dropping the Oracle drivers for MS drivers as soon as I can resolve the issues I'm having with MS drivers on NT boxes. On my informal testing the MS drivers were about 4x faster than the Oracle drivers when pulling test data of 10,000 records.
