Title: Oracle to Excel
Laura,
 
lots of tools do this for you automatically.  Oracle discoverer will export the results of a query directly into Excel format.
 
You can do this yourself as follows:
 
in SqlPLus
 
select col1||chr(10)||col2||chr(10)
from table.
 
the chr(10) is the tab character.
spool the results to a output.xls
 
open the file using excel.  the tab character is the default column delimiter.  You should see all your data in cells.
 
hope this helps.

I think I have seen traffic concerning the extracting of data from Oracle into an Excel spreadsheet.  We now have a need for this.  Could anyone enlighten me?

Thank you in advance.
