Re: VB-Oracle without ODBC??

before you start up using other stuff with vb consider using a alternate front-end.
I switched to from vb to delphi about 1.5 yrs ago - excellent perfomance, native oracle access with sql-links drivers. borland and oracle do have a alliance on their tools/rdbms and it is a modern oop language with true 16 and 32 bit compiler- take a look.
