Adam,
Sorry I don't know of any gateway between Access and Oracle. Mainly since Access is designed as a single user desk top file manager.

Looks interesting. Ideally what I would like to do is pretty simple ... I was hoping to do something like
select * from dbo.tableIneed from adam_at_remoteAccessDB
is there something like that out there? The word gateway comes to mind, but I can't seem to find much on technet about it.
thanks
adam

Adam,
I would recommend a tool called Data Junction, not sure who makes it.
We
have a process (manual in nature) in our Sales & Marketing department to
download advertising data from magazines, you know those "bingo" cards they
always stick in somewhere. This process then user Data Junction to map the
various download formats into the database. Works very well, kind of like
SQL*Loader on steroids & user friendly too. If our going to use it in a
batch
mode, you may want to check out WinBatch from Wilson WindowWare
(http://www.winbatch.com) as well.

Does anyone have any stories or advice? I am new to the idea of gateways and Oracle using ODBC or a similar tool to get to external data. Basically I am going to have an Oracle 8.1.7 DB on NT that needs to pull data out of an Access file nightly.
If someone can give me a push in the right direction for some doc's/info/tools that would be great!
thanks
adam
