Re: Retrieving data from an Oracle Database

You can extract the data with a SQL query, concatenating the columns with a delimiter - often a comma. Spool the output to a text file, any extension you like, but usually .txt

Remove any surplus strings from the top and bottom of the file, so that you have "clean" data, before importing it into Access.
