I installed the Oracle client tools, configured a TNSNAMES.ORA file with Oracle Net Configuration Assistant and I am able to connect with this config in SQL*Plus. But whenever I want to connect from within my application I get the following error message: "Some Oracle symbols are not found. Look in the console for more information." I don't know where to find the console. Here is the code I use to connect: Dim db As New OracleDatabase db.DatabaseName = "TNSNAME" ' created as a TNSNAME.ORA file db.UserName = "USERNAME" db.Password = "PASSWORD" If Not db.Connect Then MsgBox db.ErrorMessage Else MsgBox "Connected" End If The reference says something like 'The Oracle OCS client 9i or later must be installed.'. But I guess I have that installed. I couldn't really find OCS client (Google finds an Oracle Outlook Connector) Any suggestions on how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.
