SQLPLUS Connection to MSSQL Server

sql_coderOct 14 2006 — edited Oct 30 2013
Hello,

I have two questions about sqlplus.

- is there a way to connect from sqlplus to an mssql-server, and if possible, what you need to do ?

- the column command is good to format a query. but with that command, I have to name every single column I want in the output from an select-statement. since I do a lot of ad-hoq querries, is there another way to tell sqlplus not to use the maximum width (depending on the datatype) the column might return, but the maximum width from the datas length, that returned from the query ?

thanks
Ilja
