ODBC is one way to do it. Another is to use Oracle's Objects for OLE product, which is a lot easier to use than ODBC. You can download the ODBC drivers from Oracle's web site. As for manuals, I can't be of much help. Oracle's Objects for OLE includes documentation and sample programs for VB. Used to be a trial that you could download from Oracle; I am not sure if this is still available.

Good Luck,
