Always great advice from this list!
I cut and pasted the code into the Visual basic editor made a reference to ActiveX
And now I get a run time error.
"Oracle client and netorking components were not found" Actually I only have the Oracle Instant client installed - sqlplus works from the comand line.
Do I maybe need the Full Client? Received on Thu Apr 26 2007 - 08:46:49 CDT
