Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Hi,
You didnšt mention what platform your Oracle database is on. If youšre on
Windows you can easily do this through a database link with Heterogeneous
Services. Just set up an ODBC DSN to SQL Server, then create a file for
that data source in %ORACLE_HOME%\hs\admin. Finally, add the service to
your listener.ora and tnsnames.ora and create a database link that uses the
entry in your tnsnames file. There are examples of how to set up these
admin files in the hs/admin directory.
I havenšt tried this on Linux or Unix, so I canšt speak to how easy or hard it is on those platforms.
