Re: Stored Procedure with Output Parameters

Dim dr As OracleDataReader = cmd.ExecuteScalar

This line means you are using ADO.NET and not ADO as classic ADO's Command
OBject does not have a ExecuteScalar method. This newsgroup discusses
classic ADO (on-topic) and not ADO.NET (off-topic)

If you want help with ADO.NET, read below:

All .NET newsgroup have the word "dotnet" somewhere within.
If a newsgroup does not have "dotnet" then it is not for .NET support

See

Newsgroup support on .NET:
microsoft.public.dotnet.* hieracrchy

Newsgroup support on ADO.NET:
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.adonet

Newsgroup support on VB.NET:
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.languages.vb
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.languages.vb.controls
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.languages.vb.data
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.languages.vb.upgrade

Newsgroup support on C#:
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.languages.csharp

Newsgroup support on Datagrid:
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.datagridcontrol

Newsgroup support on Datatools:
microsoft.public.dotnet.datatools
