Hi,
There are two different Oracle Client installed on my computer. And
i'have an application that have to access Oracle. But it chooses the
wrong Oracle Client while it's executing. How can i set the right
Oracle Client for .Net Framework.
Can anyone help me.
Thanks.

Try changing your Path environmental variable by switching the placements of
your Oracle client paths.
 
Actually there is only one Oracle Client path in environmental variable
Path. But it's also intaresting that in the registery the values that
shows Oracle dll's shows the old ones. Does installing the last version
of MDAC be the solution?
Thanks.
 
Unfortunately, Oracle installations can be messy to get rid of. What
version of Oracle client do you have installed that is active?
Additionally, what other versions of Oracle have you had on the machine in
question?

Only if you need to connect to 8i do you need 2 clients on your
machine. Otherwise install the 10g client and you can connect to 9i and
10g. You can switch the oracle home as Christopher says:change the
placements in the path.
