                 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
***********************************************************

This updated BDE SQL link driver for Oracle 8 fixes the 
following problem:


AUTOCOMMIT
----------

Explicit transaction rollback will rollback all the 
inserts/updates/deletes done prior to the start of the 
transaction.   This is NOT expected behavior.



INSTALLATION
===========================================================

  a. Make sure that any BDE applications are closed and 
     BDE is not running.
  b. Unzip the file, sqlora8.zip, to a local temporary 
     directory.
  c. Copy the unzipped file, sqlora8.dll, dated 9/17/99, 
     to your BDE directory,  typically 

         c:\Program Files\Borland\Common Files\BDE

     replacing the existing sqlora8.dll file, dated 6/21/99
