Convert from oracle to access

Dear all,
Is there any tool to convert from oracle to access?
Thanks for advance !
chara

I will describe two ways here.
1) By toad
Toad outputs the result in a grid. You can save it as csv file and then can import in access database.
2) By sql* plus spooling
SQL> set heading off
SQL> spool dept.txt
SQL> select 'Dept Number,Dept Name,Location' from dual
2 union all
3 select deptno||','||dname||','||loc from dept;
SQL> spool off
Now you got dept.txt as csv file. Import this file in access database.

Migrate schema from oracle to access

Hello everybody !
i need to migrate the schema(only tables) from an oracle db to access.
the migration workbench can do that ?
thank you regards.

No, it can't.
I think you are on the wrong forum. Also think that nobody ever from Oracle will invest time in developing something for helping users to migrate FROM oracle....
Try Microsoft's forum ;)

Convert from Oracle to Paradox

How is the best way to convert an Oracle 8.1.7 database to Paradox 7 db ?
Are there any tool available that will be able to do this ?
I know I can create scripts to create the tables and import the data. But because the datatypes is not similiar, it will not be that straightforward.
Regards
Karen

I can also convert to DBase - if anybody have a solution for that .....

Problem using "CASE" (trying convert from IIF in access)

I try convert a function IIF from ACCESS, replacing "IIF" for a "CASE", and get me a error in "SELECT line 19", can any1 help me ?
PROCEDURE [GetInfo_ASN]
@P1 smalldatetime -- Data de Entrada
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SELECT
dados.dbo.GVAL_PEDIDOS.AVAP_Id AS [Reg SIGA],

select case when (SUBSTRING([dados.dbo.AVAB_Codigo],5,1)="0")

WHERE (((GVAL_PEDIDOS.AVAP_dtEnvio)>=@P1)
AND ((GVAL_PEDIDOS.AVAP_Status)=7)
AND ((GVAL_PEDIDOS.AVAP_Origem)='7521'));

Remove the SELECT in front of your CASE Expression, then it should work =>
PROCEDURE [GetInfo_ASN]
@P1 smalldatetime -- Data de Entrada
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SELECT
dados.dbo.GVAL_PEDIDOS.AVAP_Id AS [Reg SIGA],
dados.dbo.GVAL_BEM.AVAB_Codigo AS [Cod Bem],
case when (SUBSTRING([dados.dbo.AVAB_Codigo],5,1)="0")
then Right([dados.dbo.AVAB_Codigo],6)
else (SUBSTRING([dados.dbo.AVAB_Codigo],5,1) & Right([dados.dbo.AVAB_Codigo],6))
end as [UE/UL],
dados.dbo.GVAL_PEDIDOS.AVAP_dtEnvio AS [Dt Envio],

Connect from Oracle to Access, what am I doing wrong????

Hi,
I'm tying to establish a connection from an Oracle 8.1.7.0.0. Database to an MS Access database,. I'm folowing the exact steps as described in the Oracle documentation, but still I can't get a connection.
I have the folowing environment:
Here's what i did. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT I'M MISSING?? (i already checked wheter the right Oracle software for odbc support has been installed)
* Created a system DSN (called farmabc) for the concerning .mdb file using ODBC 'Data Source Administrator'
* Created a file called initfarmabc.ora file in the ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin directory. This file contains the following: HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = farmabc
* added the folowing statement to the listener.ora file (under SID_LIST_LISTENER):
(SID_DESC=
(SID_NAME=farmabc)
(ORACLE_HOME=D:\oracle817)
(PROGRAM=farmabc)
* Added the folowing entry to the tnsnames.ora file:
farmabc= (DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)
(HOST=<hostname>)
(PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID=farmabc))
(HS = OK))
* Restarted the listener
* Restarted the database (just to be sure)

I'm not particularly familiar with Heterogenous Services, but there is a Heterogenous Services/ Generic Connectivity forum here on OTN. The folks over there are much more likely to have some helpful information for you.

Setting tracing on in the initfarmabc.ora file does not generate any logging!!
Does anyone know what's the problem here?????
Thanx in advance

hi
I suggest u simple method to resolve your TNS error.
gotto access db
select any db
click 'file'
right click 'get external data'
click 'link tables'
select files of types='odbc'
noe click 'machine data source'
click 'new'
select 'user data source' & click 'next'
use scroll & select 'Oracle in Oracle page' & click 'next' & 'finish'
now
In data source name= 'give any name'
description='give any name'
TNS service name = select globaldb after clicking the combo box
user id ='type user name'
after doing all these now click the 'Test connection' , if it succeeds,yes u have overome from the TNS error.
You can choose the same globaldb for the TNS service name.

Convert from Oracle Freeware to Licensed version

Good day,
We have a development database on Oracle9i and our Dev Team wants us (urgently) to migrate it to Oracle10g R2. We are planning to use the OTN License version while we are waiting for the license.
My question is, is their a way/shortcut to convert the OTN License version to a licensed version without having to remigrate the database? Any info will be appreciated. Thank you.

Good day,
We have a development database on Oracle9i and our
Dev Team wants us (urgently) to migrate it to
Oracle10g R2. We are planning to use the OTN License
version while we are waiting for the license. Apparently your legal department has not haad a chance to see the Oracle License agreement. The Oracle9i license you used was for Prototype and evaluation, not for Development.
My question is, is their a way/shortcut to convert
the OTN License version to a licensed version without
having to remigrate the database? Any info will be
appreciated. Thank you.It's exactly the same software. The Oracle License is simply a 'permission to use the software under certain circumstances'. There is absolutely no change in what you are doing.
Well, not quite .... when you license the software properly for development and production, you have nthe opportunity to purchase support. So the big change is that you will be able to get and apply patches.

Export Images from ORACLE to ACCESS

Hi,
i stored some image data as LONG RAW and have to export that data to ACCESS-DB. How can i do that.
An import into ACCESS via ODBC is not possible.
Thanks
Astrid

Dear all.
normaly I prefere to use that OTN-Forum because i get an answer very quick. But now i didn't get an answer since 2 days. Is the reason because i have to download data to another product than ORACLE?
I'm an ORACLe Customer since more than 15 years. That request is an exception. I hope i can show my customer that i can do everything i want with ORACLE! So please give me some hints.
Thanks a lot
Astrid

Transfere from Oracle to Access

HI
I have took an exported file for one table and I want to import it in Access database.
Is there any way to do that,If yes ,How can I do that?

byeIf by "exported file" you mean a file created by oracle export utilities (exp or expdb), then the answer is no. That file is oracle propriatery format, recognized only by the complementary oracle import utility (imp or impdp).
Access can connect directly to Oracle via ODBC, allowing you to create either an imported or linked table.

Converting from Oracle Express Objects to Standard Form

Hi,
I have create an EIF file from our Oracle Express database, then I have created an Analytic Workspace and imported the EIF file. After this I identify the Time dimensions. But when I want to identify the hierarchie dimension of each time dimension, it brings an Error: "ORA-34492: Analytic Workspace Object Jan96 does not exists", but when I look in the OX there exists the object. Where is the problem?
Thanks Diana

Did you run the conversion program listed in the documentation:
If your Express database contains Oracle Express Objects metadata (that is, it was created by Oracle Express Administrator), then you can use a conversion program named CREATE_DB_STDFORM. Without Oracle Express Objects metadata, CREATE_DB_STDFORM cannot generate sufficient standard form metadata for the OLAP tools to work.
This should generate the required metadata but you will not to create some additional attributes to correctly manage time as the conversion utility does not do everything for you:
If you want to perform time-based analysis on your data, you must identify all time dimensions and populate end date and time span attributes before using CREATE_DB_STDFORM. A sample program is provided in this appendix:
Create date and time span attributes for each dimension.
DEFINE TIME_TIME_SPAN VARIABLE INTEGER <timedim hierdim>
PROPERTY 'USERDATA' FALSE
DEFINE TIME_END_DATE VARIABLE DATE <timedim hierdim>
PROPERTY 'USERDATA' FALSE
Populate the end date and time span attributes, as described in "Populating Time Attributes".
Set properties on the Time dimension:
CONSIDER timedim
PROPERTY 'END_DATE' attribute_name
PROPERTY 'TIME_SPAN' attribute_name
The END_DATE and TIME_SPAN values (attribute_name) identify the names of the variables that you just created.
Run the conversion tool with a command like this:
CALL CREATE_DB_STDFORM('aw')
Refer to the syntax description in "CREATE_DB_STDFORM Syntax". After the conversion tool completes successfully, save the changes:
UPDATE
COMMIT
Hope this helps

Why data change in linked table in Access - link from Oracle DB

Can someone please help me to solve this situation? I try to find out why data is changed from Oracle to Access. I must come back to this thread because lot of data in my Oracle database is defined as NUMBER(22), and I am using Access heavily.
Here is the problem:
In Access, I created ODBC connection (System DSN) to Oracle 9.2 database by using Oracle driver (NOT Microsoft ODBC for Oracle). Then I linked tables from Access with the Oracle table. What happens is that the number in Access linked table is displayed as a scientific number. Is there a way that I can preserve whatever I have in Oracle database?
For example:
Comp_ID in Oralce is defined as NUMBER(22) = 40000000000324003; In Access it looks like this 4.0000000000324E+16.
What I have in my system:
1- Oracle 9.2 client
2- Oracle driver
3- Access 2003
4- Jet - SP 8

Using Oracle Generic Connectivity to connect from Oracle to Microsoft Acces

I am trying to connect from Oracle to Access using ODBC. I followed the steps described in oracle documentation but was not sucessful. Could you plase take a look at my code let me know where I went wrong. It is as follows :
1)Created an ODBC connection for Microsoft Access called 'MSACCESS' (System DSN). And associated accdb1.mdb to this ODBC connection.
2)Created a table called orders in accdb1.mdb.
3)Added the foll lines in tnsnames.ora
accdb1 =
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=
               (PROTOCOL=tcp)
               (HOST=kdandapani.170systems.com)
               (PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=accdb1)
(HS=OK)
4)added the following lines in listner.ora :
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME=accdb1)
(ORACLE_HOME=c:\orasrv)
(PROGRAM=accdb1)
5) Copied inithsodbc.ora to iniths_accdb1.ora in the ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin directory. Added the following line there :
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = MSACCESS
6)Created the foll dblink :
create database link access1
using 'accdb1';
7)tried to access table ORDERS in the MSACCESS database with the foll SQL -
select * from orders@access1;
Resulted in the foll error message
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name

hi,
I am new to Generic Connectivity i have just followed all the steps you wrote once in this forum but i m getting the following error :
SQL> SELECT * FROM LOGIN@MSACCESS;
SELECT * FROM LOGIN@MSACCESS
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28509: unable to establish a connection to non-Oracle system
ORA-02063: preceding line from MSACCESS
Following are the steps you suggested in this forum :
1)Created an ODBC connection for Microsoft Access called 'MSACCESS'. And associated accdb1.mdb to this ODBC connection.
2)Created a table called ORDERS in accdb1.mdb.
3)Added the foll lines in tnsnames.ora
MSACCESS.170SYSTEMS.COM =

(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = kdandapani.170systems.com)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = MSACCESS)
(HS = OK)
4)This is how the listner.ora looks after I added SID_NAME=MSACCESS :
# LISTENER.ORA Network Configuration File: c:\orasrv\NETWORK\ADMIN\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =

(ORACLE_HOME = c:\orasrv)
(SID_DESC =
(PROGRAM = hsodbc)
(SID_NAME = MSACCESS)
(ORACLE_HOME = c:\orasrv)
5) Copied inithsodbc.ora to iniths_MSACCESS.ora in the ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin directory. Added the following line there :
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = MSACCESS
6)Created the foll dblink :
create database link MSACCESS
using 'MSACCESS';
7)tried to access table ORDERS in the MSACCESS database with the foll SQL -
select * from orders@MSACCESS;
I have used my login table instead of orders. But i got an error that i have stated earlier.
Can you please help me ? if possible than please forward your reply to : [email protected]

Exporting Data From Oracle 10g to Access

Hi Experts,
I need to export data from oracle apps shcema(each and every object in it) to MS ACCESS File.
Please let me know how to do it
Thanks and Regards,
Andy

Since you did not provide details of what you are planning to do, a very simple, however, depending upon the number of your tables, very labour intensive solution:
Although being not very familiar with access, I think access offers a means to import csv files.
So e.g. using SQL*Plus you can execute the following steps.
set pagesize <nnn>
set linesize <nnn>
set colsep ',' -- You may choose other special characters to separate columns of your output
spool <csv-file>
select * from <tab>;
spool offWherever you see <nnn> exchange by appropriate numeric values to get just one page as result and to configure your line size to hold a complete record in one output line.
Replace <csv-file> and <tab> by the name of your output file to be read in to access and by the name of your table, respectively.

How to access a PDF file from Oracle DATABASE SERVER

Hi
I have some pdf files in "\home2\docs" directory in Oracle database server 10g. (OS is Linux) I want to access those pdf files from my client system through Oracle Forms. How is it possible?
Please Help!!!! It is very urgent !!!
Expecting fast response!!!!!
Bye

hi
Thank u for ur response.
Initially i tried to access pdf file from database server. I didn't get any solution for that. So I copied all my pdf files to Application server which is in Linux environment at "/home2/docs" directory.
I gave the following command for accessing the pdf files kept in Lnux Application Server from Oracle 10g forms in a button press trigger.
web.show_document('http://192.168.1.53:7779/home2/docs/test.pdf');
It says "page cannot be found"
So I copied one of the pdf file named "test.pdf" to "/oracle/oas10g/IasHome/forms90/java" in Linux Application Server . Then the following command
web.show_document('http://192.168.1.53:7779/forms90/java/test.pdf');
has opened the the pdf file in browser.
192.168.1.53 is my Linux Application Server IP. and 7779 is the port.
Actually we have lacs of pdf files. So i cannot keep all the pdf files in "/oracle/oas10g/IasHome/forms90/java" directory in Linux Application Server. And also all the pdf files not in the same directory , "/home2/docs" some of the pdf files r in the subdirectories of "/home2/docs/" like /home2/docs/sub1, /home2/docs/sub2, /home2/docs/sub3 etc.
Then how to configure my "/oracle/oas10g/IasHome/forms90/server/forms90.conf" file for retrieving pdf files from "/home2/docs/" and its subdirectories. Is Anything other than this, required for solving my problems.
Now My PDF files r in LINUX APPLICATION SERVER not in database server.
Please help!! It is VERY URGENT!!!
