1) I do not see where Sarbanes Oxley "restricts" reports generated from the database using whatever tool and which I assume will NOT be used as "official" financial reporting.
2) If you actually are restricted by some "Company policy" (aka. Sarbanes Oxley mis-implementation) then copying the data from Discoverer to MS Access will make no difference; changing the reporting tool still could be considered "restricted".
So, that "restriction" just seems a bunch of baloney (BS) to me.
