  Is there any way to do a table truncation across an oracle linked server?  I have looked up methods to do with linked servers but only found solutions for sql server to sql server linked servers.  I can do a delete openquery but OMG its slow as piss and hoping there was another way.  I have to do a data load to Oracle but they want  me to clear out the table first before I push it.

  openquery with truncate may work - if not create a stored proc on oracle that does the truncate for you and exec it through openquery
