Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.tools -> Re: Cross database joins in Oracle 8.0
You have to use a DB Link in oracle to access the second database tables from the first one. Once you have the DB link, then you can use the tables from the second database as you use the ones from the first one. Only difference will be that you have to use the DB link name with the table names.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Sreeni
