Re: Utilities to convert SQL Server SQL to Oracle SQL

Hi,

Seems like an outer join feature (or somethink like row with and without values)

But I would write about another thing that may be important to you. The SQLServer has case-sensitve object (tables, views and so on) names (violates ANSI-92 standard). If you convert this to oracle, oracle must escape these names (enclosuring with ") to gurantee its functionality. It means your statements going to sth like SELECT "mytable"."mycolumn" FROM "mytable" WHERE "mycolumn" =
NASTY!
Before migrating, onsider carefully if you can set all names uppercase to avoid this.

oli.
