Re: Connect to a remote database without a link

Hi Stephen,

The COPY command is a SQL*Plus command and allows SQL*Plus to act as a "pipe" for want of a better description between two databases to copy data. It is deprecated as far as I know? and i don't think it handles some of the newer data types.

I think the OP meant from within SQL rather than SQL*Plus.

kind regards

Pete
