Hi, Mark,
The Oracle Programmer product can be purchased for $995 and includes
various programming interfaces and precompilers (including the one for ProC).
Still, your point is well taken. Even $1K seems a little steep for putting
some basic Oracle functionality into your C/C++ programs. Whoever was pushing
you towards Oracle Designer and Oracle Developer clearly did not understand
your needs and could benefit from additional (or any?) sales training. From
what you have stated in your posts, you only need Oracle Programmer and not
Designer or Developer.
