Recently I upgraded to Oracle 8.0.4 on my test machine from Oracle
7.3.3.  The documentation says I should be able to export in Oracle 7
format using the O7 export utility after running CATEXP7.SQL as SYS.  I
executed the script.  When I start the O7 exp utility it loops endlessly
and the process must eventually be killed.  My questions are:  Do others
of you do this?      If so:  Are there additional steps that the
documentation left out?  TIA!
