[Quoted]  I have a Oracle Database in which one table consists of an index term and a variable which stores many paragraphs of text. I am trying to export this into Microsoft Access.

I have a little bit of a problem as the machine with Access cannot connect to the machine with Oracle. Instead, I have a third machine which connects to both and has established a ODBC connection to both the Oracle and my Access databases.

[Quoted] My strategy is to try to export the Oracle table into Access format and then simply ftp it over to the Access machine and open it. However, I do not know how to export into Access without having Access.

My Questions:
1) Is there a way to export tables from Oracle 7.1 NT Server to Access Files without Access?

2) Is there a better way to do this? (I'm sure there is, but it continues to allude me).

Thank you very much,
Jeremy Dorin
