@Eric
I am a pl/sql noob, but I did manage to retrieve a ref_cursor via .net as follows:
CREATE or REPLACE PACKAGE myVars AS
TYPE CommonCurTyp is REF CURSOR;
--my test server is 8i need to define cursor in a package
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE jtest(
                    v_repaircur OUT myVars.CommonCurTyp
IS
BEGIN
OPEN v_repaircur FOR
SELECT * FROM BLAH;
END;
--vb.net code:
dbConn.Open()
Dim selectCommand As New OracleCommand("jtest", dbConn)
selectCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
selectCommand.Parameters.Add(New OracleParameter("v_repaircur", OracleDbType.RefCursor)).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output
Dim adapter As New OracleDataAdapter(selectCommand)
adapter.TableMappings.Add("Table", "repair_codes")
Dim ds As New DataSet
adapter.Fill(ds) 'boom! here's yer dataset
dbConn.Close()
with some minor hacking, you should be able to get it, HTH
