title: Is it possible to use ODP 11 xcopy deployment and not change the PATH?
body: <p>I have an application that's using Oracle.DataAccess to connect.  I've already discovered that the footprint can be lessened by using ODAC 11 with xcopy deployment.  That's already a big win.</p>
  
  <p>Ideally, though, we would like to not have to alter any path variables and have all the ODAC files in a subdirectory underneath the application's folder.  Is it possible to do this without changing the PATH variable?  Is there some way to set a temporary PATH variable?  Could we copy all of the files necessary to the application folder?</p>
  
  <p>The general idea is that we want to isolate our ODAC files as much as possible from other applications that might be running on the same client.</p>
