If you want minimum changes --->

Use Reverse Engeeering Feature from Oracle Designer/2000

You have a structure of database

2. Use Transparent Gateway for DB2

     You have a transparent access to DB2 database (data) from Oracle
      envirounment

3. Generate Forms using Oracle Designer/2000

You have front-end Oracle and back-end DB2

4. Replace back-end and install Oracle or use DB2 as you want

Expectation - full time of project 6-12 months
