I have been using VB's built in control specifically for Oracle databases. It is the only way, in version 8, to access an oracle database. I dont know of any other way to access an Oracle database from VB. I am using personal Oracle 8i (8.1.5).

How else can I access Oracle 8i from VB 6?

The table does have a primary key, so that cannot be the problem.
