hello,
I have to replace old and slow RDO in Visual Basic Application.
What is the fastest and most effective way to do this ?

Is oo4o a good suggestion ? Or maybe something different ?

what is the difference between OCI and oo4o ?

thanks a lot for any help
greetings

Did you mean ADO?

Look at Oracle's SOA Suite.

OCI = Oracle Call Interface. It is the lowest level API written in C
to get access to an Oracle database.
It probably can be called from VB, but it is completely different from
RDO.
OO4O (Oracle Objects for OLE) is more less akin to RDO, however newer
interfaces are OleDB and ODP .NET. Tutorials for all of those
interfaces are on http://otn.oracle.com, hit Tutorials on the OTN home
page.

Is there any sense to write in OCI ? It seems to be difficult :]
have You any experience about that ?
I think that using oo4o will be better solution than writing my own
dll in OCI using cpp and the using it in my VB application
