Hello,

This may not be appropriate, especially for large amounts of data, but you could install/use an ODBC Driver (actually two separate Drivers) to ATTACH each of the two (2) databases with Microsoft Access.

Once the Tables you need are ATTACHED, it's a fairly simple matter to create an APPEND Query that takes data from the Sybase Tables and puts it into the Oracle Tables.

Of course, there lots of small issues, such as Data Types, Indices, ... but in many cases this is very effective, viable solution.
