Oracle Technology Network: Forums

Oracle Technology Network: Forums: "The tnsnames.ora file allows you to define alias names to your DB servers. Instead, you would rather not use an alias and define the DB connection information within the .NET connecting string. You can do this with ODP.NET. For example, you can use the following connection string from C#:

string constr =
'User Id=scott;
Password=tiger;
Data Source=(DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = xxxx)(PORT = 1521)) )(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED) (SERVICE_NAME = xxxx)));';

Just put in the your HOST and SERVICE_NAME information in the data source, create a connection object, and you are done! You can change or add any other connection string information to configure your Oracle connection."
