ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
cmd.Parameters.Add(New OracleParameter( _
"EMPCURSOR", OracleType.Cursor)).Direction = _

cmd.Parameters.Add(New OracleParameter( _
"DEPTCURSOR", OracleType.Cursor)).Direction = _
ParameterDirection.Output
Dim da As New OracleDataAdapter(cmd)

ds.Tables("Emp").Columns("Deptno"), False)
