VB.NET ans ORACLE database


Oracle 10g, VB.NET 2005 Express Edition, Database connectivity, Visual Basic 2005

Hi all. I know, that there is a big risk of asking a silly question, but I try to connect to a ORACLE 10g database witch MS Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition and all programming examples I found do not work. Is this a configuration that does not work? Or what software do I need exactly? What should I do exactly?
Many thanks for your help!

VB Express should have no problem connecting to an Oracle database.

You will need to install and configure the Oracle drivers on the machine which you are doing your development work on.

Many thanks for your quick answer. In between, I downloaded the “cookbook” from Oracle where’s a complete listing is in it and it worked now fine. The tries before were all based on snippets and it seems that somewhere there was the problem.
