Re: SQL Server Tables to Oracle Database

As others have mentioned, the dts package is a good way.

But, something this small in size could be done a lot of ways and quickly.

One simple way that comes to mind is use MS Access . Link the tables in sqlserver into MS Access and then do a "save as/export" to external odbc dsn which is the Oracle database. Gets the data, but watch out for case sensitive table names or with blanks. They get setup in Oracle that way and dealing with case sensitive table names or column names is a pain usually.

Note: I know this way works with a simple Access table, but I am not positive about a sql server linked table . Seems it should work.
