Bret,

If it were me, I would try to get an ODBC connection to the Oracle tables and use Remote Views to write the transfers. It isn't much different from using Remote Views against SQL. When I was using Oracle at my last job, it came with a satisfactory ODBC driver that has to be installed on the machine. I had good luck with it. Just my 2 cents.

The data is huge as one table has 5 million records and the next size is 500,000 records. The data will be given to us twice a week and I am tasked to get the data out of Oracle and into our VFP system. As I have no Oracle experience, I was wondering what would be the best way to do this? Any suggestions would be appreciated, but if you do give one that involves doing something inside of Oracle can you provide a detail explanation. Because as I said I do not know Oracle. What I am hoping for is a fairly automated way of getting this done, so that it can run unattended at night.
