RE: VB/Oracle question

Hi Brian ,

   U need to install SQLNET or NET8 ( depending on your version of Oracle) to define your connection method to Oracle, configure your TNSNAMES.ORA file , then setup the requirements for the method in which u r connecting  to Oracle through VB ...

Example
  OLE Objects in case u r using it as method of connection to Oracle in VB   Or Microsoft ODBC driver for Oracle in case u r using ODBC methods of connection.

HTH Regards
