There are several ways to do this. As noted above, an ODBC connection can provide you with a direct link to data residing in an Oracle database.
However, if you are really looking for an export you have a few other options.
1) Use a formatted query to select into a spool file from SQL*PLUS
2) Write a procedure that writes to a text file (using TEXT_IO from forms or UTL_FILE from the server-side)...similar to 1) above, you will provide the formatting in the queries.
3) use other export utility

step2 get data you need from the ORACLE database.
step3 you can connect to e2000 using the ststement of form_dll().
step4 using 'insert into your_table@ODBC:e2000 your_value',you can realize the data_transfering.
