I haven't had the opportunity to explore the options available with the Oracle Data Browser utility.

I'm writing a design document and need quick feedback on whether the Browser has the following capabilities:

  1. Can you define the Browser user interface so that a user can only look at information in specific tables? (i.e., design the report to only view certain columns, instead of an entire table, limit Browser acces to only specific tables, etc.)
  2. Can you use the Browser to print the results of database query without having to view the report generated, therefore using as a means to print database contents?
  3. Does one need to run the Browser as a separate process? Or can it be used somehow in conjunction with your database application?

In the application were designing we need the capability to view and print message logs which are kept in the database. The Browser seems like a utility that might be useful for this.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks,
