I am currently involved in the developement of a client/server system. I'm interested in getting any ideas or 'things to avoid doing' from anyone who has related experience...

The architecture of the solution is:


|   PC Client  |  
|(Visual Basic)|                        
|--------------|                       _______________

| MS ODBC | | |
|--------------| | Oracle 7 |
| SQL*Net | | (unix) |
---------------- --------------- |_____________________________________|

(This architecture has largely been determined by the existing  environment into which this app. must fit. The 'Net bandwidth:  X-server vs PC client/server' debate has raised a few questions...)

However, my main questions are:

thanks,

Dave
