Hi all

I have the following lines of code to access an Oracle Database

'Imports System.Data.OracleClien
.....

'Dim myConnectionString As String = "Data Source=<databasename>;integrate
security=false;User ID=<theUser>; Password=<thePassword>
'Dim myConnection As New OracleConnection(myConnectionString

'myConnection.Open(

At this point I get a "system.EntryPointNotFoundException i
system.data?oracleclient.dll" errormessage which also mentions "Could no
find entrypoint OCEIEnvCreate in dll oci.dll

I am sure that the used DBname, User ID and Password are correct. Can anyon
tell me what I'm doing wrong here

Thanks in advanc

Hi Sandra,

If you are using MS Oracle provider you have to have at least Oracle 8.1.7
client.
If you are using Oracle's own provider I think the lower limit is set to 9i.
