Re: Accessing to Oracle from .Net Compact Framework

I am not sure of the terminology, but someone I work with went to a Microsoft 3 day class/conference and was impressed by the interaction between Microsoft's programming tool (Visual Studio?) and Sql Server... and somehow using .NET ?

Anyway, I would also be interested if the interaction noted would be possible with Oracle, since Oracle is our main database server and Microsoft's programming tools are our main development tools.

Not saying I agree with this combo of server and tools, but it does seem to be a popular combination.
