You don't even need Transparent Gateway, you can just use Heterogenous Services. Here's a link on AskTom as well: http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:4406709207206#18830681837358

I used it to connect to DB2.

Also, you might look into DBMS_ERRLOG,
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_errlog.htm#BABGGCDF, as they will allow you to do set operations without having to worry about potential errors (datatype conversion?).

It's fairly easy to roll your own PL/SQL solution, just a simple (hah!) INSERT INTO SELECT * FROM remote_table_at_db_link;
