Dear Brian,

There is the following options:

1. ODBC: Open DataBase Connectivity
2. DAO/RDO : Data Access Objects
3. OCI: Oracle Call Interface
4. OO4O: Oracle Objects For OLE

For an example of the latter visit http://members.aol.com/gjlinker and browse to the Oraxcel utility page. I've written a paper to explain how to connect to Oracle from VBA using OO4O. You'll find a hyperlink to the paper on the site.

Kind regards, Gerrit-Jan Linker
