As I browse through the contrib directory I find an Oracle directory with example perl scripts to do just as your asking. -----Original Message----- From: pgsql-admin-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pgsql-admin-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bradley Kieser Sent: Wednesday, December 28, 2005 10:12 AM To: Murugan G Cc: pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [ADMIN] migrating oracle table to PostgresQL Yes. But Oracle is completely useless at dumping data. You may want to use the sqltool in HSQLDB (http://hsqldb.org/) or similar that is able to connect both to Oracle and PG. PLSQL developer is also able to do a connection to both but is commercial software. Alternatively, if you are really adventurous, set up a JDBC link to the PG table via DBLINK in Oracle and then pump across that way.
