For the benefit of the rest of us ... what is 14 SQL Servers? 14 instances? 14 databases (schemas in Oracle)?

 From my experience the best way to move data between the two is SQL*Loader. But only after the data
extracted from SQL Server has been cleansed of all of the hidden lower ASCII characters that SQL Server
seems oblivious to.
