I can connect to my Oracle database and I can connect to my SQL Server database. But the "Convert Schema" button stays disabled. What am I doing wrong? Anyone have experience using this tool?

i'm not sure anyone here will have experience with this software. I would suggest asking questions on the Oracle technet site for assistance.

lol - I don't think anyone at the Oracle site will help me figure out a tool to convert my Oracle database to SQL Server :)

I posted in the MSDN so hopefully they can help me. Thanks anyway.

haha, yeah that _is_ funny.

I had never even heard of it before i just now googled it. Obviously, my assumption was that you were converting to oracle from SQL and using Oracle's migration workbench. anyway, good luck with getting help with it - I think you may be the only person who has ever tried to use this particular package.

Hey Ferret,
Once I get a test server up, I'm going to try testing migrating an old Oracle 8.1.7 database to SQL Server 2005. Hope things go well. Have you tried it yet? Did you have any problems?
Thanks,
Robert
