We are interested in using VB as a front end/forms development tool to an Oracle 7 database.
Are there widgets/methods available to permit direct interaction perhaps via SQLNET.
I've heard some horror stories about trying to use ODBC as a connectivity layer and would prefer a simple solution that involves the fewest possible 'middleman' layers.
A high performance solution that lets the DBList DBCombo and DbGrid widgets interact directly with Oracle tables would be ideal.
There is also talk about a product called Oracle Objects for OLE. Does this supply widgets like DbGrid ?
Any comments from people who have already been down this road would be greatly appreciated.
