I'm investigating this now and seeing if it's something that can be done.

Thanks for looking into this. Oracle is the primary reason I purchased the tool. I am still running on a 2019 MacBook (Intel), but will be forced to an M3 MacBook in the next 3 months.

How has the investigation going into the new Oracle Instant Client for Apple Silicon?

Slowly! I SIP is what is currently slowing me down at the moment. Previously when I would build SQLPro for Oracle it was a system without SIP but in order to build/link the newer libraries on the newer system thats a bit more difficult. I also still need to figure out if I can combine the old libraries and the new libraries together so that I can still distribute SQLPro for both platforms, or if I no longer support older platforms. Not a decision I've made yet. So... slowly :)
