Hi,
i'm very new to oracle so my hope is to find help.
I have a big problem, I have a big mysql DB and want to migrate it to oracle, after that I want to use ADODB with php to connect.
I use the SQL developer and tried the quick migration.
My questions are:
- in SQL developer all tables and names are upper case, only. Is the only way to have the original sheme to place the names into "" and this by hand?
- do you have only UPPER CASE in you db, it would be very hard to rename all vars in my applications.
Thanks for help in advance!
Arne

Note that variable-names are not case-sensitive.
References to object-names are case-insensitive as well; Oracle internally translates all object_name references to upper-case, which generates a problem if you use mixed-case objectnames.
The general advice is to convert your object-names to uppercase. This is a one-time effort, and you will regret not doing almost every day, for the rest of the app's existance.
