Hi gurus,

I want to update my Oracle 7.3.4 Database to Oracle 8.1.5 on Windows = NT. I
planned to do it in the following way:

Cold backup of V7 database
Full database export of V7 database
Export of User-Schema of V/ database (only one schema which owns = objects in database)
Install V8 Software above V7
Use V8 DB-update assistant or create a empty database and import the = full export. I have no experiences which is the best and fastest way.

Database size is about 700 MB.

Any comments are welcome.

TIA Volker Sch=F6n
