RE: Oracle to MSSQL conversion?

I have a question re. these conversions...

If an Oracle database has 120 tablespaces, how does that translate in MSSQL speak?

(One of the tablespaces is USERS, home of dozens of schemas; the others are either RB, SYSTEM, TEMP or application tablespaces)

How many separate schemas-tablespaces can MSSQL hold per server?

Patrice.

I know Microsoft is offering a new course called 'Microsoft SQL Server 2000 for Experienced Database Professionals'. It is aimed at DBAs with experience with Oracle, DB2, Sybase etc. who want to know more about SQL Server.

You can read more about this course at
