You can download Oracle Instant client from here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/htdocs/winsoft.html I would suggest reading some basic docs, starting with:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/toc.htm http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14261/toc.htm
