Hi
I'm running some 10 manual reports in oracle db (windows) daily, now i need to automate this process by running a batch job which will query against the oracle database and generate reports in flat files.
Could anyone suggest me an idea how to connect the job with oracle db ?
thanx

Maybe I'm missing something here. The only reason I originally responsed is because I was working on a very similar project a few weeks ago before I gave up on it.
SQL*Plus should exist as a PROC (ORASQL at my site) that you can use in your JCL. Provide it with the correct input for the TNSNAMES and SYSIN DD's and you should be able to do what you want:
| Code: |
//ORASQL EXEC ORASQL,SSN=PGEN
//SYSERR DD SYSOUT=*
//ORAPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//TNSNAMES DD *
....
/*
//SYSIN DD *
...
/*

| That ORASQL proc executes the program PGM=SQLPLUS. |
