Re: Fastest way to move a Database from one Computer to another

The easiest way depends alot upon the circumstances and size of your database.

Some of the options to consider are

• export the old database and import after creating the new
• create the new database and copy from the old via db_links

Moving away from Novell servers has been good for most of the apps I've worked on, what platform are you moving to ?

Take care
