Do Oracle 9.2 and Oracle 10g support Borland Database Engine (BDE)
for Delphi 5 Enterprise edition. From where do i get more information on this issue?

You can work with Oracle 9.2 and 10G using Delphi 5 BDE. Try to find additional information on Borland site. ODAC supports Oracle 9.2 and Oracle 10g and its specific types and features.

Thanks paul.
I do not use ODAC in my application. So i need to know whether oracle 9.1 rls 2 and 10g support BDE without ODAC or any other components.

You can access Oracle databases through BDE without using our components, but BDE is not a specific Oracle tool, so you will have some Oracle features and types limitations. If you need to get full Oracle functionality in your hands we suggest you to use ODAC.
