If someone would like source code to reproduce it, I could probably code something up quickly.
If the MS OLE DB Driver for Oracle was coded correctly, what should be the outcome for your test?

Should you get a message saying that the database is no longer available?

It seems that you are upset because you don't like the error hadling for a Microsoft supplied program. Try plugging the cable back and see if it works.

If it does add to the documentation that the network cable must be plugged in.
