Article #27578: Oracle Stored Procedures Generate Access Violations in ORA805.dll

QUESTION: Oracle stored procedure worked fine with BDE 5.0.1 but later versions generate Access Violations. Is this an incompatibility with older versions of Delphi? ANSWER:      The problem isn't a bug in SQL links, nor is it a backwards compatibility problem with the BDE. The D4 shipping of SQLORA8.DLL didn't use the OCI 8 calls to get the stored procedure schema info, instead we were using OCI 7 calls. It is the attempt to get the stored procedure schema with OCI 8 calls that is causing the access violation.      The current work around is to use the BDE 5.0.1.
