Hi,

First you have to buy the Oracle Data Provider for DotNetNuke at AcuitiDP. Then, rewrite / adapt all *.SqlDataProvider files for conform to Oracle database. This files are used for create tables and stored procedures.

If your client do not want to use SQL Server because the licence price, remember that DotNetNuke can use the free version SQL Server 2005 Express.

It would be so particularly appreciated that your messages begin with "Hello" and end with "Thank you" or any other form of politeness. Ask yourself what your reaction would be, if you were approached by me (a total stranger) on the street to ask you something without saying "Hello" nor "Thank you"? After several years of services dedicated to the community, I begin to be tired to read requests without any form of politeness.

Sakis - the store module will work with Oracle very shortly (as are most if not all of the other modules). When you purchase the oracle data provider (AcuitiDP), the idea there is that you get all the core modules too that are released with DotNetNuke and since the store is one of the core modules, this would be included too.
I have been swamped recently with the conversions for Forums module and am planning to address the store module next to get it working with Oracle.

Gilles - sometimes it's not question of free SQL Server 2005 Express. I have a lot of clients that use the Oracle version because they use Oracle as their database (for other applications) and have an Oracle DBA in house. Some of the larger clients are not allowed to introduce a different database platform and such using SQL Server 2005 (whether free or not) is not an option.  Wanted to make sure you're aware of this in case you weren't.

Thanks
