Hello all,
I am attempting to write test cases for verification of installation of Oracle 8.1.6 Client on a Win NT 4.0 machine. However, I am a novice and have no clue how to verify that it is infact this the version installed. Any advice?

so, are u verifying client installation or database from the client?
in any case
you first create a host_string (tnsnames.ora)
then
1. tnsping <host_string>
2. if you login to sqlplus using this host_string, everything is fine.
