Hi Françoise,

in order to do this, you would need to export all attachments from you
Oracle DB and store them into a ZIP file for instance. Then you would need
to write a script that reads the contents of the ZIP file, creates a XWiki
document for each of them and attaches the file to the document.

I've seen such scripts in action, but unfortunately I cannot find it on
http://extensions.xwiki.org . If you're not a developer, they might be a bit
tough to create from scratch.
