ORA 12154 TNS Error

I am trying to create a windows application using VS2005 with references to CoreLab.Data 4.0.11.0 and CoreLab.Oracle 4.0.16.0
I am unable to connect to the Oracle server. I receive "ORA-12154:TNS:Could not resolve the connect identifier"

I have verified that I can access the server using Microsoft's Oracle connection and I know that my server/login/password are correct.

What else do I need to do?

Please specify your connection string.

For some reason, my Oracle home was pointing to my hard drive instead of the network location. I thought I had checked everything but I missed that.
Problem resolved.
Thanks

Not at all.
