Paradox to oracle

hai all,
i have to convert paradox tables into oracle...i find many of the paid utilities corresponds to paradox to oracle conversion...i don't know much about paradox....
so can you specify
(1) any best free tools satisfies my query..or
(2) manually how to do that (with few fetchs..) or
(3) any pardox scripts which converts pardox tables into oracle dump files ready to import....
i prefer 2,3 methods...
with thanks,
jp valapad

The best you can do is to dump the Paradox files as delimited ASCII, preferably not comma delimited, and then use SQL*Loader, or an external table definition, or UTL_FILE to reload the data.

Thanks in advance.

Full Convert can be used to easily handle this task. It is a quite sophisticated database conversion tool which reads 14 database formats (Paradox included) directly. It is able to write to 5 output formats (Oracle included), using native database connections, avoiding ODBC and similar translation layers.
Full Convert product page is http://www.spectralcore.com/fullconvert/index.php
There is a trial available, and full version can be downloaded immediately after the purchase as the browser will display all required download informations - no need to wait for confirmation emails.

Migration from paradox to oracle 8i

I am trying to migrate paradox 9 tables to oracle 8i. I used the migration tool kit. I could successfully from paradox 9 but some of the tables, i could not open and it says,"Restricted datatype attribute violation" or "Invalid datatime stamp".
Can any one help me please...

Hi,
We currently don't have a capability for Informix in the Workbench. However, there is an old script based kit on this website that may help. Please take a look at the migration home page.
Also look at the MTI partners section. Some of our partners may be able to help you.

URGENT: Paradox "Logical" Column Lost in HS translation to Oracle 8.1.7.3

I have a Paradox table with several fields. One field is a Logical Column.
Although I can see the paradox table through my HS set-up, I cannot see the
Logical column. Additionally, I can not select from it either.
Has anyone encountered this scenario, and if so, what is the
fix?
Ato Arkaah
Oracle 8.1.7.3
Paradox 4,5,9
ODBC MS Paradox Driver

Please check what the logical ODBC datatype this logical column is translated to and verify if Generic Connectivity supports that datatype or not.
I believe it converts to SQL BIT and Generic Connectivity does not support this datatype.
The datatypes that we support are listed in Chap 7 of the Heterogeneous Connectivity Administrator's Guide.

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 .....

How do I get Discoverer 3.1 to read data from Paradox 8.0?

The on-line manual for version 3.1.36.06 of the Discoverer Admin
product suggests that you can read in data from non-Oracle
databases. The following steps are from the on-line manual
instructions about creating a new business area:
1. From the File menu, choose New.
2. In the Load Wizard, choose Create a new business area.
3. Select where you want to load your data from:
Select On-line dictionary to load your data from the
Oracle database where the current EUL resides.
Select Gateway to load your data from a non-Oracle data
source.
4. Click Next
I am trying to read data from Paradox Version 8.00.302.
Has anyone had success in this area? Can you suggest any web
sites or books? How do I set up a gateway?
Thank you.

There's a newly opened forum on the Oracle Transparent Gateways
product family. The folks over there probably have more
experience answering this sort of question and are likely a lot
more knowledgable about what you need. I'd recommed you ask
your question over there.

Steve,
We do not have a Transparent Gateway for Paradox.
You can use Generic Connectivity to connect to it using an ODBC
driver.
For more information on Generic Connectivity and how to set it up
refer to Chap 7 of the Heterogeneous Connectivity Administrator's
Guide on OTN at
http://download-west.oracle.com/otndoc/oracle9i/901_doc/server.90
1/a88789/gencon.htm#1656
Ensure that the ODBC driver that you are using, meets the
requirements defined in this chapter. The ODBC driver also needs
to be configured in order to be able to access Paradox. If you
are not able to access it look at the ODBC driver log file for
errors.

URGENT: Paradox "Logical" Column Lost in HS

We have a problem with our HS. "Logical" Paradox columns are not available
via the HS link from Oracle (i.e. DESC shows all columns but the "Logical",
and we can select from all columns but the logical one).
Is there a solution to this?
Ato Arkaah
Oracle 8.1.7.3
Paradox 4,5,9
MS ODBC driver for Paradox

Please check what the logical ODBC datatype this logical column is translated to and verify if Generic Connectivity supports that datatype or not.
I believe it converts to SQL BIT and Generic Connectivity does not support this datatype.
The datatypes that we support are listed in Chap 7 of the Heterogeneous Connectivity Administrator's Guide.

Signon page gives invalid OS error, using Firefox on Oracle Linux

Installed PeopleSoft HCM 9.2 (PT 8.53.02) using Oracle Virtualbox VM template. Installed X Windows and GNOME Desktop and virtualbox guest additions. When I connect to the signin page using firefox (17.x) on this same VM which is running Oracle Linux, I get the unsupported OS errror. Checked browser.xml and that looks fine.
Error: We've detected that your operating system is not supported by this website. For best results use one of the following operating systems ....
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Interesting, I didn't know that. But the error message does list "Oracle Enterprise Linux" as one of the supported options.Hmmm, that's right, rather embarrassing. However, according to the all certification matrix that I can read on My Oracle Support, Linux is no where supported for web browsing.
Seems a bit paradoxal. It probably has to be reported to the support, I don't think that's a VM peculiar issue.
But why not using the web browser from the host instead of the one from the guest VM ? Will 'solve' if that's a Windows host...

CR Developer 11.5 - no Oracle connection listed

Hello,
I have the Oracle client on my PC, and have selected Oracle Data Access as an installed option in setup.
I have crdb_oracle.dll under c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc.
But, when I create a new report, "Oracle" is not an option under Create New Connection. How do I make it available for reporting?
thx

It states that
For CR XI to work with Oracle, you will need to install the Oracle 9.2 client or higher.
Here I'm pasting the article
KBase Article ID:c2018235
Article refers to:Crystal Reports XI
Symptom
In Crystal Reports, there have been changes made to the availability of native database drivers.
What are those changes, and how will they affect the migration of your reports to Crystal Reports XI?
Resolution
Below are the native database driver changes that have occurred between Crystal Reports 8.5 and XI. Migration strategies are offered for each change.
SQL Server Native Driver:
The SQL Server Native driver is deprecated. Crystal Reports 8.5 was the last version to have this driver. When migrating a Crystal Reports 8.5 report to Crystal Reports XI, it is recommended that the report be converted to an ODBC connection in Crystal Reports 8.5, and then migrated to Crystal Reports XI.
PC Type Databases:
In Crystal Reports 8.5, connections to PC type databases are created by clicking the 'Database Files' file folder in the 'Database Explorer'. In Crystal Reports XI, the following options are now used depending on the database to which you are connecting.
u2022 'Access/Excel (DAO)' - Native DAO Connectivity (Access, Excel)
u2022 'Btrieve' (Pervasive native connection to Pervasive files)
u2022 'IDAPI Database DLL' (Paradox)
u2022 'xBase' (any xBase type database such as FoxPro 2.6 or lower, Dbase)
u2022 'ACT! 3.0'
Lotus Notes Native Driver:
The Lotus Notes Native driver is provided in Crystal Reports XI on an 'as-is' basis. This driver is deprecated so if issues occur with the driver, or if new versions of Lotus Notes are released, the driver will not be updated. Therefore, ODBC is the recommended method to connect to Lotus Notes to ensure full availability of functionality with Lotus Notes. It is also highly recommended that the report be converted to an ODBC connection in Crystal Reports 8.5 before migrating to Crystal Reports XI.
Dictionaries and SQL Queries:
When migrating to Crystal Reports XI, reports that are based off Dictionaries or SQL Queries (.qry files) will need to update their datasource to use Business Views or Command objects, respectively. Dictionaries and the Query Designer have been deprecated and are no longer supported in Crystal Reports XI.
To migrate a report to use a Business View or a Command object, BusinessObjects Enterprise is required. Business Views are created in BusinessObjects Enterprise XI, and you will need the Data Source Migration Wizard to update your report's datasource to a Business View. Reports based on SQL queries will need to migrate to a Command object to run in Crystal Reports XI. In order to set the location of your report to the Command object, the Command must be stored in the Repository.
The Data Source Migration Wizard is included with Crystal Enterprise 9 and 10, and Business Objects Enterprise XI.
Oracle Native Driver:
The Oracle native driver for CR XI requires the Oracle 9.2 or higher client, and the Oracle 8.17 or higher server. Before migrating reports based on the Oracle Native driver, make sure you have Oracle 9.2 or higher installed to continue using the native connection. If you do not have Oracle 9.2 or higher you can try switching to an ODBC connection to continue using an older version of the Oracle client.

Want to know about oracle

want to know about oracle

First thing you learn from Oracle, Oracle is a huge Ocean of concepts, its a Universe within a Universe, and within each Universe another subUniverse ...
Information Paradox in which knowledge and meaning clash, from Sthephen Hawkins ... Seems much more easier to understand.
Let's state it this way, what do you want to be when you're grown up?? DBA, Developer, Application Specialist, Applications DBA, JDeveloper, Warehose Builder, Spatial Data Processor, Security Officer, Web Master, Data Miner, .... ???
I suggest you to narrow the scope of your question, and aim at a very specific goal, otherwise, you'll end up swallowed by the black hole of Oracle knowledge.

Networking/connection failure using generic connectivity with paradox databases

I tried to establish a connection from our Oracle 8i-Server
(Rel. 8.16 ) to a remote paradox-database via a database-link
and a data-direct 4.0 paradox-odbc-driver. For testing purposes
I set up a agent initialization file for a agent called hsodbc
according to the distributed-database documentation and I also
used the same parameters as in the documentation. If I try to
test the Net8-Connection an ORA-03113-Error occurs.
The entries in the agent-initialization file and in the
tnsnames/listener.ora are ...

Do you have any suggestions how to fix the problem - and meny
thanks in advance.
Andreas

Please contact Oracle support for this issue.
Ensure that you are using an ODBC driver that meets the
requirements listed in the documentation.
Also double check that the ODBC driver is configured correctly.
