We used a combination of all of the above!

Our Access database was about 100,000 rows, the migration tool took all day and then failed not having done half a job. We've used it successfully for 10/20,000 row databases.

Our procedure was:

  1. Use migration tool to transfer structure only, no data.
  2. Export Access data into csv format.
  3. Use SQL*Loader to import csv file.
