Incompatibility with Oracle 8.1.6 db and Oracle 8.1.7 ODBC driver?

317462Aug 6 2002
I'm attempting to connect to an Oracle 8.1.6 database using vb6 adodb and an Oracle 8.1.7 ODBC driver. I'm able to successfully connect to the database, but when I attempt to open a table, the program hangs.

In looking at the log file from running a trace, the last line it shows is the following...

VB6 118-46 ENTER SQLExecDirectW
HSTMT 031C2000
WCHAR * 0x030CDF50 [ 25] "select * from BARTRESULTS"
SDWORD 25

where "BARTRESULTS" is the table name.

I read a thread on incompatibilities between Oracle 8.1.6 and 8.1.7, so is this one of the incompatibility issues? If so, is there a way to uninstall my 8.1.7 ODBC driver, and install a 8.1.6 ODBC driver? I attempted to do this using the Oracle Universal Installer, but it didn't seem to work.

Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
