Go here:   http://technet.oracle.com/
Sign up for a free account.  Then follow the "Documentation" link - then
"product" - then "Oracle8i Server, Release 8.1.5" - then "Oracle Call
Interface Programmer's Guide" down after the "Application Development"
heading.   OCI is not for the faint of heart, but it can be very fast and
gives a maximum amount of control when interfacing with Oracle.
Good luck,
