[Rojasree]

hi,

i created setup for my application and configured in all client machines ...
but when i want run that exe in client sys then iam getting of oracle error.
it means...i need to install oracle also in all my client machines.
is there any way without installing the oracle, my application has to be executed ....
i used adodb in my application and created connection to oracle database to get data.......

thank u

Is there any Oracle components (not database) you need to install?
Such as SQL*Net in 7.3 or any drivers?

In your ADO Connection string, you should verify that it referneces the single server which HAS oracle on it.

Get your connection string checked here.

Also make sure the computers are all networked properly.

I have just finish a project using VB as frontr end and Oracle atr Back end.
I use same ADODB and I have insatlle oracle at the client machine. There is need for this because using your connecting stirng you will need oracle driver tobe able to create you DSN. Also the TSName will have to be configured to point to the oracle data base. The other way is to install a driver for the ODBC. If it is SQL or its compactibilites you did not need this because window has all the driver it it.

As far as I am concern there is need for a driver to do this not necessarily insalling a client side oracle.
