Dim OraSession as OraSession
Dim OraDatabase as OraDatabase
Dim OraDynaset as OraDynaset
Dim Person as OraRef
'Create the OraSession Object.
Set OraSession = CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession")
'Create the OraDatabase Object by opening a connection to Oracle.
Set OraDatabase = OraSession.OpenDatabase("ExampleDb", "scott/tiger", 0&)
'create a dynaset object from customers
set OraDynaset = OraDatabase.CreateDynaset("select * from customers", 0&)
'retrieve a aperson column from customers. Here Value property of OraField
object
'returns Person OraRef
set Person = OraDynaset.Fields("aperson").Value
'access the attribute of person. This operation pins the Person ref value and
