    I wish life was this easy..... But I am afraid you will have to write your own scripts.

    If anyone knows better way to do it, please share the information here.

    Not sure of Excel but OEM and other GUI Admin tools can provide all this info.

    Hi

    You can write a ref cursors in a pl/sql stored proceedure where you input the table and the result set would contain what you require..then using odbc and excel i think you can do this...

    This is my idea although i dont have much experience with ODBC..but u get the idea..

    regards

    Well you could write a query to get you all that info, spool it to a text (.txt) file and then import that file into Excel.
    I have done this quite a few times and works really well.

    HTH,
    Lynn
