Hi Bill: I have been this route a few times and the one outstanding issue I found was the speed or lack of speed when using an ODBC drivers. I have always converted/have had to concert the connection to ADO-OLE... the performance is on a magnitude of difference. The bottle neck comes when attempting to download data (select). Delete, Update and in most cases Add requests are fairly quick. It also helps a lot if most of the SQL processing is done through procedures on the Oracle server... as well as it being much more secure.

These hookups would be up to 1000 miles from his office. He wants to use an Access ODBC driver via the Internet to enable Access querying. He has asked me to check this out as to the whys and wherefores. Help!!!!!. Is it possible to do this? Any books/articles on this topic?
