BDE with Oracle 7 and Oracle 8

When installing D4 C/S you get the option to install drivers for either
Oracle 7 or Oracle 8, why is this, why can't you install both?

It should install both drivers but ask you which one you would like as a
default.

Adam,

Yes your right, many thanks, I didn't actually check the BDE Administrator.

Given the BDE method of configuration, am I right in assuming you cannot
connect to an Oracle 7 and Oracle 8 databases simultaneously?
