The Question is: The company I'm working for is moving from an ACMS based database to Oracle. Is there any routine to extract a large quantity of data (export->import) ?? Or do I have to write routines to extract and insert into the Oracle tables? OH PLEASE have a routine. Thanks in advance Charlie The Answer is : ACMS is a transacation monitor. If is often used in conjuctions with and RDB database backend, but may also be used with RMS (indexed) files, RDBMS database, or an Oracle-Oracle database. Whatever the current database, there is always a way to get the data out into flat files, perhaps called report, dump, convert, or export. Your new Oracle database has several data loading tools, notably SQL*ldr to help insert that data in an efficient manner. Your Oracle support folks can surely help you with that.
