    Databse link on a table

    Is it possible to create a databse link on a table in a remote database?

    Lets say there is a table A in schema B in a remote databse DEV1.

    Is it possible to create a databse link poiting to table A from databse called DEV2? Is yes, how? Thanks.

    well done for missing the point of the question, he wants to create a dblink to a specific table.

    Can do that - best option would be to create a synonym for a table@ and dont give the users access to the dblink in total

    Davey is double right, also you can restrict the users from what DML's they can use on the table.

    On security side, giving access to dblink in total, have full access to all the objects in that schema may be fatal.
