Try using the DTS (data transformation services) services of SQL Server 2000
DTS is based on an OLE DB architecture that allows you to copy and transform data from a variety of data sources. For example: Oracle directly, using native OLE DB providers.
Alternatively, you could follow the following broad steps for data migration (assuming you are retaining the same table structures in SQL Server, and that you are talking about SQL Server 2000).
1. Get the CREATE scripts corresponding to each Oracle table / view / index. These can be reverse engineered from the database using a tool.
2. Map Oracle datatypes to SQL server datatypes e.g: date maps to datetime/smalldatetime, numeric maps to one of int, bigint, smallint, etc depending on the range of values in the CREATE scripts.
3. Indexes in SQL Server are of two types: Clustered / non-clustered. There can only be one clustered index on each table.
4. Converting procedures and triggers will have to be line by line, since SQL Server uses a proprietary T-SQL instead of ORacle's PL/SQL
I have yet to see a really good tool to do this migration, but it is possible to write a PL/SQL procedure / Pro*C program to automate the script creation for creating tables in the SQL Server database.
For the actual data import into SQL Server, export the Oracle data table by table into flat files, and then use the import wizard of SQL Server enterprise manager

Migrating OBIEE Repfrom Oracle database to SQL server database in Solaris.

Hi,
I need inputs in how we would migrate our connections in Repository from Oracle database to SQL server database in Sloaris server.
Is there a complication here.

Well that makes more sense, you probably have phrased your question better. Microsoft SQL Server Connectivity Components are not supported in any other operating system than Windows. So you will not be able to use the SQL Server native drivers to connect to your SQL Server. ODBC it's an option but there aren't many ODBC drivers for Unix systems. Luckily for you OBIEE includes the DataDirect ODBC drivers and supports using them to connect to a SQL Server. Check [the documentation|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e10416/general_101331.htm#sthref9] on how to use them. Having said that I would say that whoever is pushing to move your DWH to SQL Server should consider also moving OBIEE to a Windows server to be able to use the SQL Server native drivers to connect to SQL Server.

SQL Server only works on Windows-based platforms, including Windows 9x, Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows CE.
In comparison with SQL Server , OracleDatabase supports all known platforms, including Windows-based platforms, AIX-Based Systems, Compaq Tru64 UNIX, HP 9000 Series HP-UX, Linux Intel, Sun Solaris and so on.
The SQL Server advantages:
SQL Server holds the top TPC-C performance and price/performance results.
SQL Server is generally accepted as easier to install, use and manage.
The Oracle Database advantages:
Oracle Database supports all known platforms, not only the Windows-based platforms.
PL/SQL is more powerful language than T-SQL.
More fine-tuning to the configuration can be done via start-up parameters.

How to load oracle data into SQL SERVER 2000?

how to load oracle data into SQL SERVER 2000.
IS THERE ANY UTILITY AVAILABLE?

Not a concern for an Oracle forum.
Als no need for SHOUTING.
Conventional solutions are
- dump the data to a csv file and load it in Mickeysoft SQL server
- use Oracle Heterogeneous services
- use Mickeysoft DTS
Whatever you prefer.

How can I convert this to Sql Server ?

>>You mean you get the data from Oracle and tries to insert it into SQL Server?
- no, sorry, I want to convert the syntax to Sql Server
>>Are
you running the query in OLEDB provider connected to the Oracle's database?
- yes, this works fine now (after fixing this redundancy:
to_char(to_date(sysdate,'dd-mon-yyyy'),'dd')change toto_char(sysdate,'dd')

Hi swati,
1. for this u will also require help of basis team.
2. these are the steps.
a) make an entry in DBCON
b) make connection string
(on the physical application server,
so that it can connect to secondary database)
(this will be done by basis team,
in which, they will specify the
IP address of the secondary database server,
the DATABASE ID, and the port number)
c) then using open sql / native sql,
we can use the secondary database connection,
just like normal.
d) if we use open sql,
then there must be Y/Z table on
sap as well as secondary database,
and the field names , their type all should be identical.

How get OraOLEDB.Oracle messages from sql server

Hi,
I am trying of get the oracle exception messages for linked server in sql server. With ERROR_MESSAGE() I get a generic error. How I can get the oracle errror with 'ORA-001' format ?
thanks

If understand you right this should do the job:
try
// do some Oracle database stuff here
catch(OracleException exc)
String error = exc.Message;
This always gives me the errors with the format you wanted.
I hope I got you right and that it helps you.
Best regards,

Hi,
You could the free Oracle SQL*Developer to do this.
There is information and a download link here -
Oracle SQL Developer</title><meta name="Title" content="Oracle SQL Developer"><meta n…
and information on using it for migrations here -
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/migration/index-084442.html
You could use it in 2 ways -
1. Go through a migration but just pull the stored procedure code from the file created after you generate the SQL from the SQL*Server database
2. Use the scratch editor accessed from -
- Tools - Migration - Scratch Editor
and paste the SQL*Server stored procedure code into the window and it will convert it to Oracle code. The tool is very good but may have problems if you have very complicated procedures that use SQL*Server specific utilities.

Convert Sql server database into oracle

hi friends
i have a very smal database of sql server containing 8 tables
i want to convert my databse into oracle plz tell me in detail coz i dont know any thing about it.
plz help me
take care
bye

If the amount of data is small, you might look into Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS), which comes with SQL Server. This provides an easy to use GUI for mapping data between two sources.
A few warnings:
- If you let DTS create your Oracle tables, beware that that table / column names may be created as case-sensitive and data types may not be what you expect
- If you are transferring a lot of data (e.g. millions of rows), performance will be terrible.
