Hello,
Here is the situation am having problem with:
Am connecting to a 8.0.5 database via VB6.0 application installed on a Windows 2000 client/with 9i ODBC driver. The application also connects to a mainframe (DB2) via an APPC/DRDA gateway.
1.) The data from Oracle server is getting truncated, when a query is run from within the VB code.
2.) To access data from mainframe, a Stored Procedure
on the oracle server, makes a call to the APPC gateway. When this Stored Procedure is run at the SQL*Plus prompt it returns data, but when executed from within the VB application, the Stored procedure does not return any information.
Can anyone give some inputs to resolve this?
Thanks.

My guess is you can't do it with that big of a gap with ODBC versions. You might be able to if the DB was 9i and the client used 8 because 9i should be backward compatible from the DB perspective. I would say you need the client to match the server version in this case. I have used ODBC for years and this configuration would never work. The client had to be equal or lower than the server.
