Re: Unspecified error: E-Fail (0x80004005)

Heck this could be anything. This is one of those "Something bad happened"
errors.

Why are you using OleDb? Why can't you just use OracleClient?
Also, is the Oracle client installed?
Is your TNS config working?
Can you create a .UDL file your desktop, double click on that and verify
connectivity to your database from that machine?
