I think it will be very difficult to do. In Oracle export files the data is written in Oracle's own proprietary binary format. I don't know of any tools other than Oracle's own import utility that is able to read the .dmp file.
You may need to get them to send you a .csv file instead. --Walt Weaver Bozeman, Montana -----Original Message----- From: Mike Townend [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 12, 2002 7:10 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Oracle .dmp to mySQL Hi all, We have just recently inherited a web project from another company who's DB was Oracle 8. And as such they have provided us with an exported .dmp file of the database they were using... We are using mySQL as our DB backend... Does anyone know of any tools that will allow me to import this file into mySQL (or maybe SQL Server which we can then import to mySQL) MTIA Mike --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
