I find Commerce Server to be a very robust solution.
If I were you I'd take the opportunity to use/learn it.
You'd be hard pressed to provide similar functionality with ColdFusion only,
especially since
it does include features tightly integrated with MS SQL Server 7/2k such as:

Try to reverse the problem: run the query in MS SQL and select from Oracle.
Create a linked server in MS SQL to point to the Oracle DB.( See MSSQL BOL
for details on how to do this)
You must install the Oracle client( Net8 or SQL*Net ) on the SQL Server
machine for this to work.
Then run a query
Yes, it is possible. In SQL Server you would do something like this:
SELECT ColumnName
FROM tableName
WHERE CAST(ColumnName AS varbinary)= CAST('Test Query' AS varbinary)
OR
SELECT ColumnName
FROM tableName
WHERE CONVERT(varbinary,ColumnName)= CAST(varbinary,'Test Query')
In SQL Server 7
Regular selects should work just fine.
I also have the 'Enable retrieval of long text' checked in CF administrator.
