Hello all,
I'm a former oracle developer branching out into .NET.

ODP.NET has been recommended to me as alternative to ADO to make
connections to my oracle databases from my .NET front end/business
logic layer.

I've searched oracle.com for ODP.NET and all I'm getting back is ODAC
(Oracle Data Access Components).

Should I assume that ODP.NET has now become ODAC?

Many thanks,
Dave.

Paco,
Thanks for your help.

The link you provided takes me to the ODP page but from there on in
everything seems to be called ODAC, there's no mention of ODP.

I selected the 3rd link down (not the beta or the 64 bit edition) and
ended up here:

http://www.oracle.com/technology/sof...net/index.html

Try ctrl+f and look for odp!!!!!! It only appears in the URL.

Looks to me like they've changed the name just to confuse everyone and
make a bit of money by holding ODP to ODAC courses!

I think I've been a bit blind here. ODP appears to be a component of
ODAC. They've just bundled it with some other stuff.

I take back whatI said about Oracle, they're cool!

Unlike some other big proprietry software houses beginning with "M"!

Thanks all
