Probably not supported but ....

Backup your oracle registry key
edit the default home key in your registry and see what happens. Play around with the registry untill it works.

I did something like it a while ago when I tried to install an oracle 7.3.4 version next to 8.0.5, 8.1.7 and the installer only allowed the 7.3.4 in the default home which was obviously already used.

I have Oracle, 8,8i,9i installed on Win 2k. I want to have 9i as default oracle home. Where can I do that? I have tried using Oracle Home selector which was
set to 9i but still defaults to reading service name from 8.0. Oracle help says change path environment, variable to have 9i first. That does not work.
I could not find anwwhere is registry to set this. My ultimate goal is to run some Pro*C programs and use Ora9i as the default home.

Thanks
Rick
