Home Forums SQL Server 2008 Working with Oracle Excel Pivot Table shows zeros from a SQL View hitting an Oracle View via a Linked Server RE: Excel Pivot Table shows zeros from a SQL View hitting an Oracle View via a Linked Server

  • Okay - we already know it is not an Oracle issue and also that it is not a linked server issue; we know this 'cause you stated that you can query the Oracle view from SQL Server, is that correct?

    What happens if you query the SQL Server view on SQL Server? do you see the data?

    If the answer is NO then the issue is with the view - SQL Server issue.

    If the answer is YES then the issue is with Excel
