Just started doing some new projects using VS 2013 Express. The Oracle server back in the IT department is v11g something I think they told me, but it's 11... I'm running Windows 7x64 on this computer I'm using for development. We started out with the x86 Oracle client for 11.2-R4 but I was getting warning in Visual Studio about different processors. So I found and installed the x64 Oracle client 11.2-R4. That got rid of the warnings but I'm still receiving this:
Additional information: External component has thrown an exception.
So can I assume that by using the file C:\App\MyUserName\product\11.2.0\client\odp.net\bin\4\Oracle.DataAccess.dll as the reference loaded for my C# project that I'm on the right track at least? And can anyone point me in the right direction for more tutorials, etc... on how to develop C#.Net projects to connect to, read and write to and from Oracle databases. BTW, we use MySQL usually and all that works well. But the ERP app around here is Baan and we're going to need to access the Oracle tables for information. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.
