We have Oracle 7.3.4.4 running on Solaris 2.6, and would like periodically link to a database in SQL Server 6.5 running on an NT box, and extract info, massage it and then dump it on our oracle d/b Can some one please provide advice on what is the best method for linking to the SQL Server d/b thru our oracle d/b...... cheers sue edgecombe
