raw data??
If you are asking if an ASP page can access an Oracle database, then by all means, yes... just use the Oracle ODBC driver -- which is most easily set up through a DSN (Data Source Name) and you're good to go working with any database -- Oracle, Access, FoxPro, Sybase, whatever
As long as there is an ODBC driver, then you're in business -- and as long as you stick with ANSI Standard SQL for accessing the data, then changing databases is as simple as changing connection objects.
