hi: 1. install Oracle 8.1.6 R2 client libraries on your windows machine 2. configure NET8 in order to connect to the Oracle instance 3. install PHP with support for oracle8 enabled (using php_oci8.dlll). Check it with phpinfo(); 4. use PHP OCI* funtions. In OCILogon, use the service name you configured within NET8 as "database" I works for me. Hint: try to use PHP as ISAPI filter, for persistent connections. Don't use it as CGI (slow due to connection latency). If PHP as ISAPI filter is not stable enough for you, you might consider to use Apache, not IIS. Greetings, F.J. Ortiz
