title: Oracle connection string without tnsnames.ora file
body: <p>I am using the .NET framework with the System.Data.OracleClient namespace.  I have the oracle 11 client installed on my computer.  I do not want to use the tnsnames.ora file to store connection information.</p>
  
  <p>Could someone please tell me what the connection string would look like if I did not want to use the tnsnames.ora file?  I will be storing the connection string in a web.config file of a Web Application Project.</p>
