Hai,

orasql8.dll is not found under the bin directory or corrupted or permission issues.

If it is permission issue change to appropriate permissions, if corrupted you have to replace the dll.

It is better to use BRTOOLS since you are in Oracle 9i.

You can download BRTOOLS from

SAPCAR has to be version 2.00 or above. go with a datestamp of year 2006 or better.

SAPDBA is VERY old an no more supported.

Use brtools instead.
