Our client has an application that is currently working on Oracle he intends to
port the same to MS SQL Server. In order to come up with an
effort estimation just wondering if you have some material, which points out the work involved.

Porting the DATA is easy. DTS (Data Transformation Services) in SQL Server will do that nicely. Porting the application code is nigh-on to impossible. In order to make it run efficiently on SQL Server, expect to do a major re-write of the SQL code (stored procedures, triggers, etc.). Any client-application code (such as ASP or VB) will work with little if any change needed except the change to the connection string and any embedded SQL.
