You could implement FGAC or create views that only contains necessary records.

I just wanted to ping the list to see what other people have done to control or constrain adhoc query users???

We have a group that is struggling with the adhoc query piece that's in production. Some of the users end up firing off insane queries. The group is trying to find a way to limit the amount of records queried for, so that a wild query doesn't hose the database.

Appending a ROWNUM to the WHERE clause is one idea. Using USER PROFILEs is another. Any other thoughts??

Dare I ask?this custom app also runs on SQL Server, so SQL Server ideas would also be appreciated.

Many thanks!!!
