Using VBA to connect to Oracle vs SQL Server

$

Hey guys, extreme newbie to Oracle, but intermediate user to SQL Server. I have a question with a (hopefully) simple answer.

I have written some code in VB that opens a connection to a SQL Server database and performs a BULK INSERT from a text file to a SQL table.

My question is this....if I had a duplicate table in Oracle and wanted to switch to using this table vs SQL Server, would I only need to change the connection string in the code snippet below? What would the Oracle connection string look like?

Code:

    Set conn = New ADODB.Connection
    conn.ConnectionString = "DRIVER=SQL Server;DATABASE=DbMain;SERVER=serv1\pro"
    conn.Open
   
    Dim strSQL As String
   
    strSQL = "BULK INSERT [RU].[MainTab] FROM 'C:\OracleTest\Combined\Combined.txt' WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',ROWTERMINATOR = '\n') GO"
    conn.Execute (strSQL)
    conn.Close

Thanks
Joe
