You could try using DTS (Data Transformation Services) which is part of
Microsoft SQL Server :-)

Well, as I understand the commands they log on to a db and query it via SQL,
don't they? What I need is a direct native file import of the MySQL db
storage files... :-\

Thanks
Timo

Not likely.
I can see two alternatives: You could get MS Access to the job
provided you have an ODBC driver for MySQL and ditto for Oracle. The
latter is included with the Oracle client for Winblows

The second method will work, but is also more cumbersome:
export the tables as comma-separated CSV files, one table per file,
and use the sqlloader product to load the files. And, sorry, I'm not
going to abstract the sqlloader manual here. It is in the Oracle
Server Utilities Manual
