I was thinking that same thing as the easiest way as I know transparent
isn't cheap and there probably isn't an easy way.
I was going to use Perl/Java to make something if there isn't any other way
like the OPENQUERY option in SQL Server to look at oracle tables.

Oh geez, here I go again.
This is trivial with Perl, DBD::Oracle and DBD::ODBC.
Whether it is useful to you depends on a number of things.
* can you use an Oracl copy of the SQL server data?
* does the data always need to be fresh?
* how fresh?
* how big is it?
Since it's temporary, this may work for you.

Please respond
to ORACLE-L
I know there is a way in SQL server to query oracle tables, is there a way
to do the reverse?
I am looking at trying to create access from an Oracle DB to SQL Server
data until we convert the SQL server database.
Anyone have any ideas on this, I searched technet (ms/oracle) and metalink,
as well as some search engines without luck.
