How to upgrade oracle client from 10.2.0.3 to 10.2.0.4

Recently i got a request  from my developer  team to install oracle client version 10.2.0.4.
Here is the step that i followed to achieve the  same.

1. First install oracle client version 10.2.0.3 on you computer 

2.Download oracle 10.2.0.4 patch set (6810189) from oracle website.
   For example i downloaded p6810189_10204_Win32 for my windows 32 bit system .

Note:- There is no separate patch set for oracle client, the same patch for oracle database software  can be used for oracle client .

4.Extract the patch set  and run the setup.exe file . On the specify home details  window
choose the appropriate oracle home that you want to upgrade and click next


Once the installation become finished check the version of the client software by tnsping command
