Migrade Oracle data to SQL Server 2000
Posted by serge at 7/31/2005 9:23:20 PM
I am doing a test on migrating an Oracle 8i database to
SQL 2000. I've never done this before and I would like
to find out if there are any complications or side effects

If not DTS then what would you suggest I transfer data
with?
Thank you
