I wish to generate reports from my Oracle 11g database in an MS excel document(multiple tabs).

Do we have a solution or a product from Oracle for this task?

Thank you,

You can export to Excel with Oracle SQL Developer; you can choose if you want one file or many:

If you want to do this in PL/SQL, Anton Scheffer has written a package to help you:
