Re: upgrade from oracle 7.2.2 to Oracle 8i

Thanks for your reply, question regarding export and import

 If I export from version 7.2.2 can I import into Oracle 8i using the same dump file i exported by version 7.2.2( Or should I need to run any script for the version compatibility before importing them into 8i)?

Your reply would be highly appreciable

Thanks
Sohail
