We have had relatively good success with the 
Ada-Connect ODBC product.  We are using Gnat 
with Sybase, but the Airfields project used Oracle 
with the ODBC drivers.  Ada-Connect is based on the 
Intersolv ODBC technology, and provides Ada95 
access for Gnat and potentially any other Ada95 
compiler.  Please contact me if you would like more 
information about getting those drivers.
