[Quoted] Please forgive me for posting this again, but since it was the weekend and noone responded, I figured I would give all you geniuses another shot at it... ;-]

I'll try to make this as short as I can. I'm a financial guy who uses an Oracle DW at my company. I saw a sales demo of Oracle Reports. It looks awesome...I could publish my queries and stuff for access with a browser.

My main problem is that I have lots of tables and stuff I have to use that aren't in Oracle. I have no permission to put stuff there and the IS people are slow at best...I basically have no method of getting what I need into Oracle in any timely fashion...so I have to use Access, Excel, and other various halfassed   methods to make db info available to my bosses without me having to publish manually...so my first question is...

Assuming I could get a space to place tables and develop my own schemas, is there an Oracle tool I could use to create procedures and schemas and such that doesn't require me to write code?

Now for the really ugly part...

There's a decent chance that I won't get the permission to do the stuff I talked about above...so I want to know this, also...

Is there an Oracle tool (I've seen 8i Personal, but don't know what it is) that would allow me to (easily, with no or very very little code) replicate a couple of their schemas onto my own box and then do the development work I described above there?

Any help on any of this is much appreciated and I'll still be your friend when I'm famous.

Thanks
