    Connecting to multiple databases

    I am new to VB and I need to create a word template using VB. In general the template will read/write to a sql server database depending on the actions of the user.

    However, it will also be necessary to create a form in the template which will contain lists of values. These will be populated from an oracle database.

    Will this work ok having the template use 2 different databases at different times?

    Welcome to the forums.

    Do you need both databases to be open at the same time?

    If so, just use two different connection objects. If not, you could probably reuse the same connection object.
