    maybe - have look at 10g Instant Client http://www.databasejournal.com/featu...le.php/3371561

    This is a minimum "install" - for SQL*PLus you only have to copy the files somewhere (I've even run it from a USB memory stick). I've not tried ODBC.

    P.S. does NOT run on Win95/98

    . . . well, miracles don't happen.

    It doesn't mess with the registry, environment etc.
