Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Foxbase to Oracle
Hi All -
We have a small application that was written in Foxbase under DOS. While it
runs fairly well most of the time, the management wants to migrate it to a
windows-based application. We are open to any mainstream application and
database solutions at this point, although our budget is very tight and
this application has only about 8 users max. My question is - does Oracle
provide a good tool for migration from Foxbase? This is a small application
and have only about a dozen tables, my main challenge would be the
application code.
If Oracle turns out to be too expensive, what is the least expensive, least
painful migration path? Another attractive option seems to be Visual
FoxPro, which I know little about. I want to bounce it off the list first
before we make the choice.
TIA
