Vendor init when using oracle 7 2 with delphi4-bde5

Question: I have Delphi4/BDE5 and I am trying to connect to an Oracle server using the Oracle 7.2 client. Every time I try to connect I get a "Vendor Init error". I have read the Developer support Web pages and read the available documentation and everything is configured correctly. Why can't I connect? Answer: The lowest version of the Oracle 7 client supported by BDE 5 is 7.3.x
