Except I don't have any access whatsoever to the Oracle server... All I
have is a flat dmp file on a CD which has all the data embedded into
this file...

I have found a tool that will extract the table structure from this
file... But will not extract the data

There is a application out there that does this called SQLPorter made by
Real Soft Studio (http://www.realsoftstudio.com). It might be worth the
$$ if it saves you some time and hassle. It worked for me going from SQL
Server 6.5 to MySQL 3.23.

Hope this helps,

Tim
