How can I import data from SQL Server 6.5 to Oracle 7 ???
 
I haven't imported from SQL Server before, so I may be completely off base, but I have brought data over from MS Access tables.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I see two options that you can take.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;First, you could use an ODBC connection to link the tables together and then write simple SQL to copy the records from your SQL Server tables to your Oracle tables.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This is probably the easiest way, once you figure out how to set up the ODBC connection.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The other way that I can think of is to export the data to flat files and then import into your Oracle tables using SQL*Loader.<br><br>Hope this at least points you in the right direction.<br><br><A HREF="mailto:th3856@txmail.sbc.com">th3856@txmail.sbc.com</A> <p>Terry M.
