This book never loses sight of its instructional mission: to effectively utilize the Oracle database from the .NET environment. Though Visual Studio and Oracle form a popular and powerful duo, there is a noticeable lack of written material in this area.

The book always uses open connection string parameters.That is to say.You have write your user id and password in order to get connected to oracle.This not good for a programmer.But if you write your Connect method in a class.Then revoke this Connect method from this class,it would be better.In the all examples of this book,the programs contains connection string very open.But in a real example you have to hide your connection string.Since connection string contains your oracle database password.If your password changes you have to change all programs.So password changes should be dynamically reflected to the program applications.There is no object oriented example in the book.

Best one, nicely explains the basics and advanced topics of oracle - .NET programming.

A Must read for beginners in Oracle/.NET.

I got this book when in started working with oracle db using .net 2.0 beta1. It's really good book for understanding .net and oracle using odp.net and MS driver.

I put a system into production last fall with .NET and Oracle. Wish I had this book nine months ago! Mark has good advice for someone new to Oracle, but familiar with .NET. I've gone back and tweaked the system based on Mark's recommendations. I'm happy.

I would like to have given this book a 5 stars
but the title is greatly over-exagerated for Pros

This is the first time I have accessed oracle for the first
time thru visual studio and the book has helped me overcome
that fear. The examples are clear and concise in its into
to oracle so even an idiot could pick it up.

I would like to see a book which extends more on real life examples. A drawback i would like to add about this book.
This book is TOO exepensive for a introductory book

I am thrilled that all the examples do work which was a MAJOR plus.
