SUMMARY

Attempting to use the Microsoft Oracle OLE DB provider to connect to Personal Oracle may result in the following error:
R6025 - Pure Virtual Function Call
The Microsoft Oracle OLE DB provider does not communicate with Personal Oracle.

MORE INFORMATION

Personal Oracle should ship with its own ODBC driver that is looking for a file, as opposed to the Microsoft Oracle OLE DB provider, that is looking for a server to communicate with. Using the Personal Oracle ODBC driver will allow you to open an ADO connection and create an ADO recordset successfully.
