 32-bit ODBC driver and VB 3.0 apps

Will this work on an NT workstation? We have a VB 3.0 16-bit apps
which we would like to run on an NT workstation accessing an Oracle
database. I know I can continue to use the 16-bit ODBC drivers. Can I
also use the 32-bit ODBC drivers without porting my apps to 32-bit
(ie. VB 4.0)?

Thanks,
GV

No.  The only way to get your VB 3.0 app's to read a 32bit ODBC driver,
is to create an VB4 32bit OLE Server which uses the 32bit ODBC driver,
then have your VB 3.0 program access the ole server.

Don't quote me on this, but I don't think so.

Not true.  I know that for at least two Ingres drivers, I can access 32 bit
drivers from within VB3.0.   I can only assume that this should also
work for Oracle.
