I am using parameters for Access and Oracle.

When creating a parameter you need to specify the oledb.type
for example, OleDbType.VarChar
New OleDbParameter(name, OleDbType.VarChar, length)

Is there a list or easy way to relate the Access and Oracle data types to
the oledb.type? I just guess now.

Do you mean something like the table found at the following MSDN link?

ms-help://MS.VSCC/MS.MSDNVS/cpref/html/frlrfSystemDataOleDbOleDbTypeClas
sTopic.htm

Probably not exactly what you're looking for but it should help some
hopefully.

I had already seen that, it's of no use without knowing how the oledb
provider describes their data types.

Do you think there is a way to reverse engineer what the provider
uses? Maybe using the oledbcommandbuilder?
