Thin client drivers don't need Oracle's Net Components. Go to
otn.oracle.com and go to downloads. You can download the drivers from
there. You will also find this thing called documentation there and
examples. I think the driver download even includes and example. Please,
please use prepared statements. You can also go to asktom.oracle.com and
search for examples and answers to questions.
