Hi Dennis,

Actually lots of users are connecting to this database from remote locations and connections are very slow because of network. So these clever people wants some sqls/reports to be run from ODBC connection and get data into excel and then work on that data. So that they don't need to access database full day.

Now I am suggesting them that we should create views in the database. Views definition will take care of report logic. And then through ODBC, they will just do 'select * from view_name' and get data in excel and carry on.

Any better ideas ????

Thanks,

~Dilip

Sounds as if your management is deciding to get things under control. You can move your SQL into PL/SQL stored procedures and use ODBC to execute the stored procedure.

Hi Guys,

One simple ODBC question. Our management wants a set-up where user from remote location will access oracle database through ODBC connection, execute some sql scripts, download data into excel files and then do whatever reporting on that excel data. Now management wants all these sql scripts to be on database server only. Management says user should not have access to sql scripts. They should just click icons of their PCs and data should be there.

Can somebody help. I haven't worked much on ODBC. Is it possible to execute server side sql scripts through ODBC connection and get data ?

Thanks in advance for help.

Regards,

~Dilip
