Accessing Oracle using VB 2005 express

Hi,

Can anyone point me toward some examples of how to connect to an Oracle DB programatically using VB 2005 express.

I understand that the wizards for Oracle are disabled but if I try and do a Imports System.Data.----- OracleClient is not an option.

I am really stuck on this one.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Bert

I could be wrong but I think you need to install Oracle drivers.

If I remember correctly, you need to add the Microsoft .NET provider for Oracle library reference to your project.

Bingo!

I am new to the entire .Net experience but I am really looking forward to getting into it.

Thanks for the help!
