The Oracle db is on a different server within the same network. Is there a good way to pull this off? Only way to do it from within PostgreSQL would be to write a function in a language that can connect to Oracle, such as plperl. There's been talk about extending dblink to support connecting to other databases, but I don't think anything has actually happenend on that front. If solutions outside the database are acceptable then you have more choices, though most of them are commercial. -- Jim C.
