Try the script oracledump.pl at this link. I used it to export my Oracle data to Mysql and it worked great. Some variables to modify at the top of the script, but that's it.

We will be installing an Oracle9i database shortly as the backend for our current financial package. We hope to replace it with MySQL in the future. The data held in the database will be predominantly of text-type. However, some data fields will be binary. Is it a scary job transferring data from Oracle to MySQL? What tools are available to assist in such a process. Thanks.
