There are JDBC drivers available for a few $'s that provide you external cross database connectivity. You would need to buy one that provides support for connectivity between Oracle and MS-SQL..
Other than this Gidd has a plugin which I think might work for you.. but you would need to contact him or his company for it. Gidd's product is specifically designed for the ARS and might eliminate the need for you to define your database links etc when you use a JDBC driver to connect to the external database.
