   is there any reason you can't use ado or .net? The support for these    is a lot better.

Cool! Now, where do I learn how to write ADO code that uses Oracle well? None of the ADO / .NOT books I have encountered tell you how to write code that won't cause problems in Oracle. It seems if the developer leaves the defaults set, ADO tends to think it is talking to a flat file and pulls the entire Oracle table across the network. I have one developer that seems to understand how to make it work but whenever I ask him to explain it he launches into an enthusiastic explanation and I find myself waking up refreshed and it is dark outside and everyone else has gone home. Probably how the developers think about asking me for an explanation of ORA-1555's.
