Hi Andy,

To quote from Oracle docs:

Export extracts the object definitions and table data from an Oracle database and stores them in an Oracle binary-format

endquote

It's intended to provide a way to move stuff between Oracle databases, etc.

The easiest way might be to write a script to extract the fileds and make a comma-separated file or something simple that MS/SQL (server?) might understand for import purposes.

Hope this helps a little.
