32 / 64 bit Oracle client: For running your application from the powerbuilder IDE and executable, you would need 32 bit Oracle client.
You only need the 64 bit oracle client if you generate a 64 bit executable with powerbuilder (not sure if that's possible with 12.5 but it is possible with 12.6)
Thanks for the response. I have upgraded my application to 12.6 and was able to connect with ORA db profile using tnsnames. How do i generate 64bit runtime application in 12.6? Would 32 bit runtime exe work on Win10 , Server 2003 & 2007 Server ?
Thanks,

When you create a project object, there is a ddlb called "platform". There you can choose 64 or 32 bit.
For running your application from the powerbuilder IDE you always will need the 32 bit oracle driver. You can have both versions installed.
Yes a 32 bit exe will work on windows 10, not sure if there is a windows server 2003 which is 64 bit? and not sure of 2007 server either. I know server 2008 does have 64 bit version. I think there was a problem of not having an Oracle 12 32 bit version for windows 10 (so we used the oracle 11g 32bit client), but believe that theres a 12c 32 bit version of oracle client available now also.
