在编写有关数据库方面的C#程序时，经常需要知道数据库的表中各字段的以下信息：
1. 用于OracleParameter(或SqlParameter,...)中的字段和属性的数据库特定的数据类型。
2. 其对应的.NET数据类型。
如下面的程序片断所示：
using (OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection(Pub.ConnString)){
conn.Open();
OracleCommand comm = new OracleCommand(
"SELECT trdate,txcode,drcrf,amount,balance,tellerno,txnote,zoneno,nodeno FROM detail "+
"WHERE accno=:accno AND currtype=:currtype ORDER BY accno,currtype,trdate,seqno", conn);
comm.Parameters.Add("accno", OracleDbType.Int64).Value = long.Parse(acc.Substring(4,13));
comm.Parameters.Add("currtype", OracleDbType.Int16).Value = curr;
using (OracleDataReader r = comm.ExecuteReader())
{
for (cnt = 0; r.Read(); cnt++)
{
DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["TrDate"] = r.GetDateTime(0);
dr["Txcode"] = r.GetInt32(1);
dr["Drcrf"] = IcbcEtc.GetDrcrfString(r.GetInt16(2));
dr["Amount"] = r.GetInt64(3) / R;
dr["Balance"] = r.GetInt64(4) / R;
dr["Tellerno"] = r.GetInt32(5);
dr["TxNote"] = r.GetString(6);
dr["Zoneno"] = r.GetInt32(7);
dr["Nodeno"] = r.GetInt32(8);
dr["Txname"] = DbTrxCode.GetNewName((int)dr["Txcode"]);
dt.Rows.Add(dr);
}
}
}
为此，我编写了一个小工具，其应用示例如下： 
这里是源程序(ODP.NET版)，需要下载“Oracle Data Provider for .NET”，其命名空间是: Oracle.DataAccess.Client。
using System;using System.Data;using System.Text;using System.Windows.Forms;using System.Drawing;using Oracle.DataAccess.Client;namespace Skyiv.Util.Odpnet{
class OdpnetDlg : Form
{
Label lblTable;
TextBox tbxConn;

TextBox tbxMsg;
Button btnSubmit;
CheckBox chkStru;
DataGrid dgOut;
string strConn = "Data Source=ora-m38;User ID=test;Password=p@ssw0rd";
public OdpnetDlg()
{
SuspendLayout();
btnSubmit = new Button();
btnSubmit.Text = "执行";
btnSubmit.Location = new Point(10, 420);
btnSubmit.Size = new Size(60, 24);
btnSubmit.Click += new EventHandler(Submit_Click);
btnSubmit.Anchor = (AnchorStyles.Bottom | AnchorStyles.Left);
chkStru = new CheckBox();
chkStru.Text = "结构";
chkStru.Location = new Point(80, 420);
chkStru.Size = new Size(60, 24);
chkStru.Anchor = (AnchorStyles.Bottom | AnchorStyles.Left);
lblTable = new Label();
lblTable.Text = "数据源";
lblTable.Location = new Point(12, 460);
lblTable.Size = new Size(70, 24);
lblTable.Anchor = (AnchorStyles.Bottom | AnchorStyles.Left);
tbxConn = new TextBox();
tbxConn.Text = strConn;
tbxConn.Location = new Point(83, 456);
tbxConn.Size = new Size(626, 20);
tbxConn.Anchor = (AnchorStyles.Bottom | AnchorStyles.Left | AnchorStyles.Right);
tbxSql = new TextBox();
tbxSql.Text = "select *\r\nfrom v$version\r\n";
tbxSql.Location = new Point(10, 10);
tbxSql.Size = new Size(240, 200);
tbxSql.Multiline = true;
tbxSql.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.Both;
tbxSql.AcceptsReturn = true;
tbxSql.WordWrap = true;
tbxSql.Anchor = (AnchorStyles.Top | AnchorStyles.Left);
tbxMsg = new TextBox();

dgOut.CaptionVisible = false;
dgOut.ReadOnly = true;
dgOut.Anchor = (AnchorStyles.Top | AnchorStyles.Bottom | AnchorStyles.Left | AnchorStyles.Right);
Controls.AddRange(new Control[]{btnSubmit, chkStru, lblTable, tbxSql, tbxMsg, tbxConn, dgOut});
Text = "数据库查询(ODPNET)";
ClientSize = new Size(720, 490);
WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;
ResumeLayout(false);
}
void DisplayError(Exception ex)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
while (ex != null)
{
sb.Append("> ");
sb.Append(ex.GetType());
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
OracleException e = ex as OracleException;

}
else if (chkStru.Checked)

}
tbxMsg.Text = "运行 SQL 语句完毕(" + strType + ")";
if (rows >= 0) tbxMsg.Text = "受影响的行数: " + rows.ToString("N0");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
DisplayError(ex);

bool isQuery(string sql)

private DataView RunQueryTableData(OracleCommand comm)

}
static void Main()
{
Application.Run(new OdpnetDlg());
}
}
}
此外，该程序还有以下各种版本：
System.Data.OracleClient;
System.Data.SqlClient;
System.Data.OleDb;
System.Data.Odbc;
限于篇幅，这里不就贴出源程序了，各位可以自己在ODP.NET版本的基础上稍做修改就行了。
同样是Oracle数据库，使用Oracle.DataAccess.Client和System.Data.OracleClient还是有区别的，请参阅:
“Comparing the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Data Provider for Oracle and the Oracle Data Provider for .NET ”
例如，对于数据库中的NUMBER类型，Oracle.DataAccess.Client对应的.NET类型可以是byte、short、int、long、decimal等类型，而System.Data.OracleClient一般都对应为decimal类型。
