Delphi 2.0, Oracle SQL Net 2.x for NT 3.5x

SQL Links 3.0 Oracle driver
Oracle SQL Net 2.x for NT 3.5x
MS NT 4.0 w/Explorer shell
Launching DBD 7.0 from a shortcut (.lnk) file on the Start menu
Launching Oracle's database manager from the Explorer

Oracle error 12196:received an error from TNS

Info from the SQLNET.TRC file (created by SQL Net and configured
via the SQLNET.ORA file) indicated:

"Poorly form NS address (DESCRIPTION=CONNECT_DATA=(SID=ORCL)
(CID=(PROGRAM=C:\WINNT35.0\profiles\APS\Start Menu\Programs\
Delphi 2.0 (Common)\Database Desktop.lnk)(HOST=Windows NT PC..."

Launching DBD from the Explorer (DBD32.EXE) vs. the Start menu
(Database Desktop.lnk) corrects the problem.
