Hello out there,

I am currently a balding training coordinator in an organization that is
converting to an Oracle database product from in-house written COBOL
programs.

I am being put in the position to support plebe users in their need to do
ad-hoc reporting and information retreival.  I don't want to have to train
all these people in how to use SQL or SQL Forms.  

I NEED TO FIND A DECECT FRONT END TO ORACLE! I have tried to install Oracle
Card and failed miserably.  Plus the fact that Oracle Card requires that
each user purchase the SQL Net TCP/IP as well.  We are a poor university
and I can't see each of the users shelling out that much dough.

So, can anyone out there get me a list of different front ends for Oracle.

I would really appreciate any effort.....
