Brian,

You need the SQL*Net/Net80 stuff to make the connection to Oracle. Regrettably the only way I know to get that to work is to install the Oracle Client. Otherwise there is bound to be something missing. OH, BTW: you'll also need to tell the end user how to configure their ODBC connection.

If I was going to distribute a client VB application connecting to Oracle, would I need to also distribute the Oracle Client tools or is there a small driver package to install without all the tools? Thanks,
