I write financial planning software that is purchased by tons of different clients, some of which have Oracle as their functioning databases. Some have Oracle 9 and some have Oracle 10. I'm finding that the 9 driver (the 1.4 .jar) is holding us back with some of our functionality. I've heard that we can use a 10 driver with a 9 database. Is that true?

Thanks.

Thanks so much! My business people are very happy with the documentation.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
