Inserting data into Oracle Database from VB

How can I insert, update, delete data in a Oracle Database using Visual Basic. I connected my application to the Oracle database with OLE DB provider for Oracle. For exemple : I have some data and I want to insert it into the Oracle's Database

I have tried this...

rsOracle.addnew
rsOracle.Fields("IdPatient") = IdPatient
rsOracle.update

but it didn't worked

I think I have to pass by an oracle procedure....but I'm not sure.

Help me

Your code is true way to update any db with adodb. What kind of error or what happend after your update?. It is may be your connection string is incorrect or some oracle's constraints is unsatisfied

can u put ur connection, recordset declarations here?

did u check the cursor type and locking type for recordset?

if u try an insert statement to execute with connection object, does it work?

if not try the same statement in oracle and check if you get any errors.

hope it helps.

Have you tried using connection.execute(sql statement).
if that does not work post the code you have written or the error that's getting raised

I can insert data into my Oracle's Database if I put an "Insert Into" Statement into the .source of my recordset
ex:

strSQL = "Insert into tblPatient(IdPatient) values ('H1')"
rsOracle.source = strSQL
rsOracle.open

rsOracle.close

After that I can see H1 in my Oracle DataBase.
It work but I'm sure it's not the best way to do it....

I don't know why I can't use .AddNew ?? As shown in my question!!!
