Radhika,

Dump the contents from Access into a comma seperated format or a positional format (fixed record length) and use sql loader to take the details into Oracle.

Radhika,
I do not know ur requirements and integrity constraints. One Suggestion. Do not use ODBC connection. You will run into probs in table names, field names.

All,

currently we have a Access database with 25 to 30 tables. Client is planning to no longer use Access and to migrate the whole database to Oracle. What is the best way to move from Access to oracle 8.0. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks.
Radhika.
