HI Sumaya,
This is the way you have to use dblink. And one more think. To excute this query you nedd to have dblink functions installed in your database schema.
select * from dblink('YOUR_DB_LINK_NAME','select * from mytable')as tmp(column1 datatype,column2 datatype.....)

Ram

The thing is it does return data, it's just that if there is a date column on the table, it gives me the error. Is there no way around this? Unfortunately the architecture will be able to be changed.
