Oracle 11gR2 on Windows 7 Questions

941288Jun 2 2012 — edited Jun 4 2012
I am thinking about installing Oracle 11g R2 Express Edition on my 64bit Windows 7 laptop. I am wanting to use it to access an Oracle 10g database and develop SSRS 2008 reports against that database.

Here are my questions...

Will the 11g R2 connect to the 10g database?

Will SQL Developer work with the 11g R2 client while connected to a 10g database?

What SQL Developer version is the best to get for developing SSRS2008 reports on the 10g database in this scenario?

If I do the 11g R2 install and it doesn't work, does it uninstall cleanly? I don't want to have any issues with my laptop after the uninstall.

I would appreciate any advise offered.

Thanks!
