Yes, I can certainly confirm it. So, I am not the only one having those problems :-(

In fact, I am downloading the Oracle Lite trial at this very moment, hoping that it will save the problems. According to MetaLink, PO 8.0.4 should be Win98 compatible (even though SQL*Plus will still give you the warning message), but I have not really been able to test PO yet at all. The only trial version available is 8.0.3. No patches are available.

I also have a lot of problems with the Java search windows, used by the online help. This scares me somehow, as Oracle Lite depends more on Java than PO does.
