RE: Installation Woes IDS 9.4

In Response To: RE: Installation Woes IDS 9.4 (Mike Badar)

so guys, after all the hoopla I caused, I guess I better leave this conversation politely by Saying a big thank you for all those who helped me in this endeavor ..... downloading and unzipping hehe :0)

Thank you Mike and Andreas, but I already made my boss understand things won't work.

I had a tiring week guess It's time for take a break .....

We lock horns again, when I start doing a simple query statement on the IDS Database.
Too much said by the Rookie Oracle DBA on a windows environment.

Regards,
Allen
