Hi,
We have two Oracle database - one on UNIX (call it DB_A) and the other one on NT (be it DB_B). Both are Oracle 8i.
One application which primarily uses DB_B needs one table data from DB_A. I would like to avoid the copy of the table (with data dump) from DB_A to DB_B. Can I achieve the access of DB_A data (for a table) from the application using DB_LINK. The purpose of this access is purely READ_ONLY.
I am new to this link process and any help with how-to-do will be highly appreciated.
Hope to hear you soon,
Regards,
PB
