Yeah, that's what I thought, though I'm not familiar with UPI.
Sorry, question was kind of tongue in cheek -:)

No it doesn't, sqlldr probably uses OCI... or in some cases maybe even
lower-level layer, UPI (user program interface).

 That will work as long as they are sets of tables are the same layout.
 If
 not, then you have to map from SQL Server to Oracle which could be a
 complex
 time consuming task.  Then the best bet is to generate delimited flat
 files
 from SQL Server and use SQL*Loader to load them into Oracle.  For this
I
 recommend the book: SQL*Loader, The definitive Guide by Gennick

RE: Move SQL Server Tables to Oracle

2003-09-18 Thread David . Schmoldt



Look 
into Oracle's Migration Workbench utility. It's a free download from 
OTN.

It can 
move tables, table data, indexes, constraints, etc. Also converts data types if 
needed.

I've 
used it to move Acess databases to Oracle and it works pretty well. I 
believe they have a SQL Server module as well.
