The ordinal 237 could not be located

Question: I'm attempting to connect to Oracle and I'm getting the error "The ordinal value 237 could not be located in the dynamic link library ORA73.DLL" Answer: This error occurs when you have a working install of Oracle other than version 7.3.2 and then install MTS and switch VENDOR INIT in BDE Admin to MTXOCI.DLL. The error occurs because MTS installs version 7.3.2 of ORA73.DLL to WindowsSystem32. To solve the problem rename ORA73.DLL in Windows/System32 and make sure ORA73.DLL is in your path.
