If by "any other database" and your reference to "SQL 7.0" you mean what I think you mean. No: You can not.

Replicating from Oracle 7.3.4 to 8.1.5 is not only possible it is simple.

[Quoted] PS: The product name is SQL Server. In spite of the fact that Microsoft likes [Quoted] [Quoted] to pretend it invented computing it didn't. SQL is an ANSI standard language. [Quoted] [Quoted] SQL Server is a product. If you want to communicate with people and have them [Quoted] [Quoted] understand you please have the courtesy to make the distinction.

[Quoted] And do yourself another favor. Do not try to use what you know of SQL Server [Quoted] [Quoted] to work in Oracle. You will end up hating Oracle, doing lousy work, and we will not exactly overflow with affection toward you. Read the Oracle manuals [Quoted] [Quoted] and books and write PL/SQL not TSQL. They are very different as are the products.
