I work with DataDirect Technologies, and if you’re skeptical about Microsoft’s announcement you might consider Connect for ADO.NET from DataDirect Technologies. Connect for ADO.NET offers a client-less solution for .NET platforms –free from OracleClient or so called Instant Client. Go grab a copy of our install and check out what a true pedigree, 100% managed provider, can offer while supporting the latest .NET technologies such as the ADO.NET Entity Framework provider for Oracle –http://blogs.datadirect.com/category/net-connections Thanks, Mike mnelson@crt-tanaka.com Hi Roy,
