Re: Oracle -> SQL Server

Oh geez, here I go again.

This is trivial with Perl, DBD::Oracle and DBD::ODBC.

Whether it is useful to you depends on a number of things.

• can you use an Oracl copy of the SQL server data?
• does the data always need to be fresh?
• how fresh?
• how big is it?

Since it's temporary, this may work for you.

I know there is a way in SQL server to query oracle tables, is there a way to do the reverse?

I am looking at trying to create access from an Oracle DB to SQL Server data until we convert the SQL server database.

Anyone have any ideas on this, I searched technet (ms/oracle) and metalink, as well as some search engines without luck.
