Hi Hakan, if you're using the Oracle RDB then this is fairly straight forward.. just setup an ODBC connection using the Oracle DB driver or alternatively set up a linked database from MS SQL. Both of these options will allow you to access the historical data directly from external applications.. if you are using the Value Archive however then external access becomes a bit more complicated.

Hello,

for reading data from the WinCC OA database with external tools you could use the OLE DB provider.
For details please have a look at the online help: System management --> Database --> OLE DB provider.

Do you want to read data on demand?
Or do you want to export a specific amount of data, e.g. values for one day for a defined amount of dp-elements?
