Trying to connect to Oracle using Oracle 9.2 client - a VB6 app
from windows 2003 server using microsoft odbc for oracle drivers....
(the app works un win95, win nt, win200)

getting a microsoft driver error. - using msorcl32.dll .....2007

DSNs and the communication layer all work ...Since SQL plus works

I had problems with the Microsoft ODBC driver when we switched from
Oracle 8.0.5 to Oracle 8.1.7.3... several years ago. Use the Oracle
ODBC or OLEDB driver instead (might need to perform a custom install
of the client, at least that is the case with the Oracle 10.2.0.1
client). The OLEDB driver seems to retrieve data faster than the
Oracle ODBC driver.

Is the Windows system 32 or 64 bit?
What full version is the target Oracle version?

Have you checked your ODBC and OLE drivers againt MS list of currently
available drivers?

How To Acquire and Install the Microsoft Oracle ODBC Driver
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/175018

List of ODBC drivers installed by Access, Office, and MDAC
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/208689

Installation of the Oracle ODBC and OLE drivers as mentioned by
Charles does require a custom install of the client. After running
the runtime install just run a custom install and look under the
Windows feature.
