Hi, help me....
I'm desinging a proyect "ActiveX Document" to run on the web. Well, the
proyect makes queries to an oracle database in a UNIX server, but I need the
oracle client installed on the client machine. How can I access to an oracle
database without the oracle client?.
Thanks a lot .......

Hi, Jose!
The bad news, as you've already discovered, is that Oracle wants you to
install 25 MB or so of their files before you can do it. You might try using
the Microsoft or InterSolv ODBC drivers, but you'll probably still have to
have SQLNet or another crappy Oracle app to make it all work. My suggestion
would be to figure out a way to query the Oracle database using ASP, then
send the ASP data to your app. (I think you can use an Internet Transfer
Control within an Active Document.) At least this way you would only have to
have the Oracle stuff on the Web server.

Rick Williams
