To get values from Oracle in an Excel file, you can use a few different methods. One common approach is to use Oracle SQL Developer to query the database and export the results to a CSV file, which can then be opened in Excel. Another option is to use Oracle's SQL*Plus command line tool to run queries and save the results to a text file, which can then be opened and manipulated in Excel. Additionally, you can use Oracle's Excel Add-In to connect directly to the database from within Excel and retrieve the data that way. Whichever method you choose, you will need to have the necessary permissions and access to the Oracle database in order to retrieve the values you need.
