Anyone run into this?
- did an export from DOS Oracle.

  • did binary copy of the export to a VAX machine
  • found out that DOS export uses a stream delimited output format and VMS needs a 4K fixed length format.
  • Tried VMS "convert" utility to change from stream to fixed length (didn't work)
  • going through great acrobatics to get (over 200) tables imported on VMS. Any hints/tips would be very much appreciated! Thanks in advance. -bob
