I think I forgot to take my happy pills today.
Raymond, What possible input could you be looking for here? Have you designed the database? If not, start there. That requires some business process analysis. When you've designed the DB, you'll know what data elements you need to get out of the old system to populate the new. How you transfer the data depends on a variety of factors, none of which you've mentioned (except you're putting the old system into Oracle). If you're not looking to create and populate a database, are you trying to recreate the functionality? That requires some business process analysis (I sense a theme emerging here). Once that's done, the rest is merely hard. Folks here can (I'm convinced) do just about anything (including metaphysical database administration) and will help you with everything from design questions and administration pointers, to coding tips. But you've got to be just a wee bit more specific. Have fun. David A.
