As long as you're planning to keep it in Oracle, the ODBC method is the way
to go. If you're trying to do something else where you need to physically
move the data easily, then you can use a select statement to create a comma
delimited file (quoted or not quoted). You can then easily use the Access
tools to import the data. You'll need to concatenate the data as follows.
SELECT '"'||column_1||'","'||column_2||'","'||column_3||'","'||'",'
FROM table
WHERE this condition is met
This way you get exactly what you want in the format you want. You can
change the order of the columns. order of the data, etc. based on your
select statement.
Make sure you spool to a file and that your environment is set correctly to
handle the amount of data.
