Hi Steve,

This is a shameless plug for our product but bear with me.

Our product, NXTract http://www.kiyoinc.com/NXTract.html, is a filter utility that converts Oracle EXP/.dmp files into standard tab delimited flat files.

Using NXTract, you can read Oracle tables with any package or utility that can import standard tab delimited files.

1. Ask your DBA to Dump the tables and give you the files.
2. run NXTract.
3. use Excel, 123, SPSS, SAS, anything that you're familiar with.

You run this offline on your own computer and don't impact the production database.
