Hi,
Does it matter whether I have a 64-bit or 32-bit oracle client for Powerbuilder 19 R3?

Yes.  If your app is compiled to 32-bit .EXE (even if your Windows OS is 64-bit) you need to use 32-bit DB drivers.  Only if your app is compiled to 64-bit .EXE then you would use 64-bit DB drivers.  Same applies to any DLLs/OCXs embedded in your app... the bitness has to match.

Hi Anders;

Armeen is correct with one exception - the PB2019 CloudPro edition (and higher - ie: PB/PS2021). This includes the Snap development system and it generates 64bit code. So if you plan on using both IDE's (Snap for .Net Assemblies, Web Services, Console, etc Apps) - then make sure that *both* the 32bit and 64bit Oracle DB Clients are installed (they can co-exist BTW).

Regards ... Chris
