I have found that the Oracle's OLE Objects is fairly essay to use and if you read the documentation on performance you can get a lot better performance than if you use ODBC. The caveat here is that you can still write the application so it will not perform well under either scenario (ODBC or OLE), but if you make good use of parameterized queries and do not keep reparsing them you can cut down on CPU usage (sql area reloads and reparses) dramatically. Result is faster and more scalable. Jim Kennedy
