Microsoft project 98 and oracle 8i

Hello,
I'm trying to save a project from MS project 98 into an oracle 8.1.6 database (located on an AIX Server).
I installed Net8 on the client (NT4), the Oracle ODBC driver, and MDAC 2.5.
The connexion test is Ok.
When I tried to save the project into my ODBC source, I first got the ORA-3127 error. If I enable 'Force Retrieval of Long Columns', I have another error which is ORA-01461.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem.

I've seen reports on newsgroups of people having this problem, but I've never heard of a resolution. I suspect that Project is doing something dunderheaded, but I can't prove that. You might search deja in case someone has posted a fix.
Your best bet is probably to contact Oracle support. I suspect someone needs to sit down and try to figure out what Project is trying to do here. Unfortunately, this would be a pretty significant undertaking, so I wouldn't hold out a lot of hope for a quick resolution.
On the other hand, perhaps someone in the forum has managed to get this working properly.

As you correctly state the ANSI standards weren't around when it was initially designed, so the statement is perfectly correct. ;)Ok, in one sense it may be correct but it is a completely misleading statement. Not sure why you think it's misleading.Because there was no ANSI standard, so making it sound like a design choice The Oracle database wasn't initially designed to be ANSI compliant. would suggest to most readers that there was a standard to be compliant to.
Like saying Ford originally did not design their cars to incorporate safety features such as ABS, seat belts and air bags.
The OP asked "why oracle is having different syntaxes for joins than ANSI syntaxes ?" and the answer is that Oracle wasn't initially designed with ANSI compliance, so it has it's old non-ANSI syntax,As shown above, the old syntax was ANSI compliant at the time and to call it non-ANSI is either incorrect or misleading dependent on your point of view.
and since ANSI syntax became the standard it now supports that. And since ANSI switched to a new standard, Oracle had to implement the new standard as well as the previous ANSI standard would be more accurate in my opinion.
Nothing misleading as far as I'm aware in that.I find the whole discussion about ANSI and Oracle's supposed non-compliance, reads like it was Oracle's choice to deviate from the standards, when it was ANSI's bullheaded decisions to pointlessly change standards that left Oracle and other vendors out of compliance, and that was a decision made solely by ANSI.
This is probably the reason ANSI no longer produces SQL standards, the endless syntax fiddling would eventually have made forward left under outer joins a reality.

Microsoft Transaction Server and Oracle 7.3.4/8.0.5

Hello all,
I have been working with VB COM objects in MTS and Oracle 7.3.4/8.0.5 for most of this year (2000), and I have things working with relative smoothness. However, I am having severe performance issues.
I have used the white paper Using Oracle with Microsoft Transaction Server and COM+ (http://support.microsoft.com/support/complus/mtsandoracle.asp), which got things rolling, but there is little/no information on how to gain performance. I am using the same DLLs against SQL Server databases, and the performance is very noticeably better.
Has anyone done any performance tuning in this type of scenario? Any tips for me?

Dyna, I have yet to hear of someone that has been able to successfully replicate data from Oracle 8i to 7.3.4 using Oracle Replication Services. I would sugest that you take a look at third-party solutions like DataMirror Transformation Server to help you out with this. More information is available on our web-site (www.datamirror.com) if you wish to investigate this further.

Oracle Project Management and Oracle HCM integration????

Is there any benefits of Oracle Project Management for users of Oracle HCM?? Can they be integrated and how?

ERP systems were built because you could use various products like Fin, HCM, CRM, Project accounting etc seamlessly as all are built by the same provider and you will have less interface headache.
So, based on what your company's requirements, you can choose to implement one or more of the products.

Is Oracle Project Management has all features which Microsoft Project Plan?

Hello Experts,
Customer wanted to start using Oracle Project Management suit completly along with little Microsoft project plan. as of now most of the projects are using microsoft project plan for project management and Oracle Project suit is for Costing and Billing.
But in order to start this initiative, we need to explain the difference which Oracle Project Management can not able to do but Microsoft project plan can. Based on this management will take the decesion.
As per my understanding, Orace Project Management can perform all the tasks except scheduling. As it supports scheduling from third party software like Microsoft project plan / primavera etc.
Rest I think Oracle Project management suit is equally matured to perform all the project management task which Mircosoft project management can perform.
So experts , can you please confirm my understanding and provide me some light on this topic.
Thanks :-)

Hi,
First of all, I would like to know what are the various things you are performing with a Microsoft project plan apart from scheduling the resources to a specific project .
Through Oracle Project Management, you can control the visibility of a resource,assign it to a particular project and control the tracking of the time in various assignments.If that is what you are trying to achieve through Oracle Project Management icnluding the other features it has, you can surely go for it.
Let me know if you have any doubts on it.

Compare Oracle Project Management and Primavera

Hi All,
We are using Primavera today and it is not integrated to Oracle.
We are also currently implementing Oracle Projects Management (R12.1.3) and trying to evaluate if Primavera can be replaced by Projects Management. Based upon my little experience with Primavera - I see some advantages of Primavera over Projects Management e.g.
a. Primavera is more user friendly than Oracle Projects Management.
Primavera: easy to create workplan; configurable views; generate reports with gantt charts
b. Primavera has scheduling engine to derive schedules based upon dates/duration/logic while Project Managment does not have it.
c. Gantt charts are better in Primavera than Oracle Projects Management.
Has anyone also done similar kind of analysis and evaluated the need of Primavera integration with Oracle Projects Management? I would appreciate if you can share your inputs.
Thanks,
Nitin

Hi,
I have used both the product. For project management i would suggest to use primavera for the same reason u mentioned.
the only disadvanage in primavera is it is not integrated with ERP.
Now oracle provide a AIA PIP integration package to integrate Primavera with oracle Projects(Limited integration). Use primaver for Project managment and oracle for Project Costing and Billing

Differance between microsoft sql 7 server and oracle 8

can anybody give me the exact technical differances between microsoft 7 server and
oracle8 server ?

hi,
below i listed few differences known to me.
Oracle is a multiplatform rdbms whereas sqlserver is restricted to NT server workstations.
Oracle does not include the concept of master db. All db runs independently, with their own data files,mem management, and control.
Sql server has much larger set of fundamental data types than oracle.
Oracle uses row-level locking whereas sqlserver uses page level locking.
Oracle is more mature product. It should be used for high throughput and availability and reliable backup and recovery.
hope it will give u some idea.
regards,
arun.

TFS 2013 Build for PL/SQL and Oracle Projects

Hi,
We use TFS Build with SQL Server Projects.
We also have PL/SQL projects .We are using MSSCCI to check in and check out files. Is there anyway we can use TFSbuild for these projects( [PL/SQL]/Oracle) too ?
Thank you.
Su

Hi Su,
Thanks for your post.
How do you manually build your PL/SQL/Oracle projects?
TFS Build invoke MSBuild command to build project/solution on build agent machine by default. If these projects can be built using MSBuild command line manually, then we can use TFS Build(default build process template) to build these projects.
If these projects need be built using another complier, and this compiler support run the command line to invoke it, so you can add the InvokeProcess activity(execute the command line) to invoke this compiler to build these projects in build process template,
then create build definition using this customized build process template.

Dropdowns and many buttons disabled in PWA 2007 after Microsoft Project Professional 2010 has been installed

Hi Team,
I have Microsoft Project professional 2007 installed and also using PWA for 2007.
I recently installed Microsoft Project Professional 2010, and since the time i installed 2010 all the button in PWA 2007 have been disabled.
1. I could not select a project from "Project Center"
2. I could not select resources from "Manage Resources"
3. I could not select dropdowns in the project properties even if the project is selected.
ALl the other team members are able to use both without any issues.
I also uninstalled IE8 browser and re-installed, that didn't help.
I could use PWA normally after 2010 is uninstalled.
Please suggest a solution for this.

Try running a repair on Project Professional 2007. You always have to do this after installing a newer version of project. Always run a repair on the previous version. What's happening is that PWA is not seeing 2007 on your machine because 2010 overwrote
some of the shared objects.

Instant Client 11.1.6.0.20 and Microsoft Ole DB for Oracle

Will these 2 components work together?
I have latest IC installed on a test PC running legacy Microsoft Data Access Components 2.81 SP1 and VB6. I've removed the full Oracle Client and deleted all Oracle registry entries prior to installing the IC, yet I cannot seem to make these work together.
Any suggestions? thanks.

Did you check if Instant Client 11.x include support for OLE DB apps?
I remember it as not possible with any 10.x release, but at least according to the ODAC / Odp.net Downloads page for Win 32-bit (see the README for Xcopy version), it seems as if the Oracle Provider for OLE DB now can be deployed with Instant Client, using the latest 11.1 ODAC package.
The Microsoft OLE DB data provider for Oracle was designed around Oracle 7.x and supported for use with v7/8 of Oracle client/net libraries. The component was desupported quite some time ago by Microsoft and Oracle both. (reference needed - lookup in MDAC support notes and Oracle support for OCI 7 calls in current versions.)
Please do not use ancient software components - doing so will bring hell to potential users, trying to integrate and support such apps.
