I feel dumb even asking this but I desperately need help.
I installed Personal Oracle 8i for WINDOWS 2000 in the D-drive of my home PC and then installed Oracle Forms & Reports 6i for WINDOWS NT in the C-drive. My OS is Windows 2000.
As expected, Forms and Reports refuse to connect to the Oracle database. I have tried everything to make it work and want to know if there's ANYTHING that can be done to achieve Forms & Reports connectivity. I am unable to secure a CD that contains Forms & Reports 6i for Windows 2000. Please someone help me make Forms and Reports work.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello, I repeatedly recieved the errors ORA-12203 and
ORA-12154. To explain,
I installed Oracle 8i for Windows 2000 database first in the D-Drive. I then attempted to install Forms & Reports 6i for Windows NT in the same drive, but it refused saying that there already exists an Oracle home for a Windows 2000 Oracle database. So I installed Forms & Reports in the C-DRIVE. The installations went without a hitch, but when it came to attempting to connect to the database, I kept on getting these 2 errors, ORA-12203 and ORA-12154.
My question is:
(1) Is the problem occuring because the OS is Windows 2000 whereas Forms & Reports 6i is for Windows NT?
(2) If not, could you please tell me the steps I should take to achieve connectivity from Forms 6ito Oracle 8i?
I'm very new to Oracle and am just beginning to learn, so detailed steps on solving this problem would be gratefully accepted.
Thanks.
