System.Data.OracleClient

[Guest]

Please forgive the newbie-ness of this question, but I was perusing the MSDN site and found reference to the System.Data.OracleClient namespace within ADO.NET. So I went into my project and typed "using System.Data.OracleClient" and...it doesn't appear to exist. Same thing on my laptop. Same thing on my cube-neighbor's computer. All the machines have the .NET Framework 1.1, none of them seem to have the System.Data.OracleClient namespace

Any ideas? Please send responses to my e-mail. Thanks

You need to add a reference to the Oracle client in your projects
references.

There are two data providers for Oracle. You have to download them from MS
and Oracle respectively.

I am not sure of the MS link but you can get the Oracle one from OTN.

Thanks, I knew it was something dumb like that.
