    OracleClient finding Oracle DLLs

    I've developed a working application using System.Data.Ora cleClient. For it
    to run properly, it needs Oracle's client software installed. I was able to
    get it to work by placing a few of Oracle's DLLs in the system32 folder.

    The computer on which the app will be used does not have the Oracle client
    installed, and it would be a lot easier if I did not have to make changes to
    system32.

    Is there a way to have OracleConnectio n look somewhere else for those DLLs?
    I have already tried playing with environment variables without success
    (changing PATH and WINDIR). As soon as I put the DLLs back in system32, it
    works fine.

    Thanks,
    Mike

      Oops. I was just missing one of the important DLLs.
