Hasan,
Export is not backward compatible. i.e. if you have already exported from 8.1.7 then you cannot import it using the 8.1.6 export.

There are a couple of options of doing it.
1 - set Oracle_home to 8.1.6 and sid to 8.1.7 run catexp.sql, this will create 8.1.6 compatible export views. Then export 8.1.7
Once this is done set O_H back to 8.1.7 and run the catexp to bring it back to it's original state.

2 - as posted in the previous reply.

>set env to 816
What do you mean by this?

Does this method also done the trick for a reimport into Oracle 8.1.6 from Oracle 9?

Sorry for the newbie-question and
TIA
Susanne

So... is this as effective as running the EXPAT scripts from 816 on 817, exporting and then running the 817 EXPAT scripts?

If so, why would anyone even give that advice? This is so much easier.
