Re: Installing SQL*Plus only

TMTOW... [Quoted] You could try downloading the file and registry monitors from sysinternals, do the full install on a PC with plenty of space, run through everything you're likely to need with filemon running, then see what files were accessed. Then just copy those files from the machine where you installed it to the machine which can't have a 50$ hard disk upgrade.

Alternatively you could knock up a Java version of SQL*Plus with the functionality you need and use JDBC Thin.

Yet again, if you have heaps of time, define your own network protocol, run a daemon on the server which can pass queries to the database, then create a Windows client to that daemon.

Or just telnet to the server and use the SQL*Plus local to the database.
