Urgent - sql server 2005 express to oracle data copy

  • Hi,

    I need to copy the data in sql server 2005 express to oracle.

    I was able to backup and restore from one server to another.

    I need a data copy from sql server 2005 express to oracle.

    I could not find DTS here.

    Can someone quickly help?

    Thanks

  • to do this FROM SQLExpress, the table you are going to import into must already exist.

    in that case, you can add a linked server on the SQL Express to Oracle, and run an insert statement:

    insert into MyOracle..Tablename(ColumnList)

    select ColumnList from MySQLTable

    you can also do it from Oracle, by adding a DB Link...then you can create teh table in the oracle environment if it did not exist, and then do a similar insert statemtn select from the db link.

    does that help?
