Hi all,

Can I know what is the possible connection string and what most stable connection string to connect with oracle 10g client? because I'm in a situation where the connection and transaction either must use OleDBConnection or OdbcConnection..
Example:

VB
Private m_MSSQLCN As OleDbConnection
Private m_MSSQLTR As OleDbTransaction
Private m_ODBCCN As OdbcConnection
Private m_ODBCTR As OdbcTransaction

VB
Public Overridable Function OpenConnection_OleDB() As OleDbConnection

If (Not IsNothing(m_MSSQLCN)) Then
    If (m_MSSQLCN.State = ConnectionState.Open) Then
        m_MSSQLCN.Close()
    End If

    m_MSSQLCN= New OleDbConnection(MyBase.DBConnString)
    m_MSSQLCN.Open()
    Return m_MSSQLCN
End If

End Function

or
VB
Public Overridable Function OpenConnection_ODBC() As OdbcConnection

If (Not IsNothing(m_ODBCCN)) Then
    If (m_ODBCCN.State = ConnectionState.Open) Then
        m_ODBCCN.Close()
    End If

    m_ODBCCN = New OdbcConnection(MyBase.DBConnString)
    m_ODBCCN.Open()
    Return m_ODBCCN
End If

End Function

VB
ReadOnly Property DBConnString() As String

Get
   Return "DSN=" & clsGlobVars.strDataSource & ";UID=" & clsGlobVars.strUserID &
          ";PWD=" & clsGlobVars.strPassword & ";"
End Get

End Property


Currently I'm using DSN,UID,PWD for ConnStr. If anyone know others,please help me..
Asking help from expertise for this..tq
