Once in the past I had an app default the tnsnames.ora to $TNS_ADMIN/sample/tnsnames.ora instead of $TNS_ADMIN/tnsnames.ora.

You might check and make sure its not trying to go to the sample tnsnames, perhaps by moving, renaming, or deleting it.

Subject: VB Access to Oracle Database

I had a weird situation where I had 3 PC and Oracle 10g Client is installed on them. I had installed one of the VB application on all three connecting to Oracle 10g DB.

One PC is able to read the Service correctly and connect to the database while others are not

THere is only One Oracle Home on them

Sqlplus work fine in connecting to the Database and So TNS Service or alias are correct

I tried to trace parameter in sqlnet.ora but found that only Sqlplus connection is only creating Trace file while there is no trace file created with VB Access which look like that it is not reading the Tnsnames.

No Oracle errors except database does not exist

I had also added TNS_ADMIN in environment pointing to OH/network/admin

Any other suggestion

TIA Sanjay
