Documentation Type	Describes...
Platform-specific	Installation, configuration, and use of Oracle7 products in a Windows NT, Windows 95, and Windows 3.1 environment. Platform-specific documents are occasionally referenced in the generic documentation set. Platform-specific documents are easy to identify because they always mention their specific operating system in the title.
Oracle7 Server	Provides Oracle7 Server, SQL*Net version 2.3 networking information, and Application Programming Interfaces information that is uniform across all operating system platforms. Also referred to as generic documentation, the vast majority of documents in your documentation set belong to this category. While reading through the Oracle7 Server documentation set, you are occasionally asked to refer to your platform (or operating system) documentation for procedures specific to the Windows NT, Windows 95 and Windows 3.1 operating systems.

Note: Documentation may be included in your package detailing products that you did not buy or licence, or whose functionality is not included in the current release. The presence of such documentation does not mean that these products are included in your package.
