VB6
OO40 3.0

I am using Oracle Objects with VB6 to retrieve data from an Oracle database. I have a simple SQL statement and I am using the OraDynaset. The Dynaset contains columns of more than one table. I retrieve the fields from the OraDynaset using OraDynaset.Fields(i)

How do I know the type of the underlying Oracle datatype? Apparently ther is no fields(i).type property like in MS ADO OLEDB (which I don't want to use because the connect times are too slow) In the help file I could not find anything.
