The error message is pretty obvious. You have to have Oracle Client 8.1.7 or greater installed in order to use the classes in the System.Data.OracleClient namespace.

But, since that stuff is deprecated, you would be better off installing and rewriting the code to use one of the ODP.NET library[^], which itself will require an installation of the Oracle Client.
