Compare, Merge and replicate between Oracle and MS Access

2002-02-22 Thread Xing, James

Hi DBAs,

I am researching for solution for a new project. We have a few tables in
Oracle8i db, similar tables with more columns and more data in MS Access.
The data is very static.

Our plan is to synchronize the two dbs, from then on we will always put
change(adding more columns, or insert new data) in Oracle first, then
replicate the change to MS access db in batch process.

I am looking for solutions
1) to compare the existing data in Oracle and MS Access
2) to merge the data into Oracle
3) to maintain the two db on ongoing basis. periodically check if they are
in synch, then replicate data to MS access. 

Is there any tool to do the job? any ideas for solution? One solution I
thought about is to use MS DTS to put Oracle into Access, then compare.

TIA
James

RE: Compare, Merge and replicate between Oracle and MS Access

2002-02-22 Thread Xing, James

The Oracle server is on our internal network, the MS Access is on a server
from ISP, which is outside of our network. The cost to eliminate the MS
Access, merge all application to our Oracle is too high, so we decide to
stay the way it is.
 
It's not real replication, just copy(move) the data from Oracle to MS Access
in batch process, but we want to automate the process.

 Are you serious?
 Replication between Oracle and MS Access, why?

Thanks Dennis, link to Oracle in Access through ODBC is one option, actually
good idea.., if I can get through the network. the Access and Oracle are
on different network.

 James - Have you considered just maintaining the Oracle tables and then
 attaching (or whatever the Access word is) the Oracle table in Access?
 That
 way you have a single table, single source, etc. Simple is good.

How to find out Oracle patch applied

2002-02-12 Thread Xing, James

Hi DBAs,

I want to find out what Oracle patch installed. 
Someone just installed Oracle817 binary on our server but no 817
instance setup yet, so can't query v$version.

Thanks
James

Is there any Oracle file I can use Unix command strings to search for
version/patch info? I don't have x-window session.

 Load the Oracle Installer and click on Installed Products - will tell you
 every patch installed by the Installer, which are all the major ones . . .
 minor patches and one-off's that are installed via OS file copy will NOT
 show up.
