Installing 10g client on windows7 64 bit. ( 11g r2 already installed)

907389Dec 25 2011 — edited Jan 3 2012
I am a fiscal auditor auditing data on databases with hundreds of millions rows. So not a professional database expert.

I have Oracle 11.2.0.1.0 installed on Windows 7 64 bit ultimate

I want to import data from warehouse which has Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 installed.

When I try to import

impdp usr/pass@WAREHOUSE TABLES=TABLE DIRECTORY=DATA_PUMP_DIR NETWORK_LINK=D_W VERSION=10.2

It gives :

UDI-00018: Data Pump client is incompatible with database version 10.2.0.4.0

To overcome version incompatibility, I think I need to install 10g client on my computer.

But I already have 11gr2 database installed, so I wanted to learn about potential problems.

Especially about having two Oracle Homes, tnsnames.ora files, which 10g client version, etc..

Step by step explanation is highly appreciated.

Thanks.
