In SQL Server, I can "import" FoxPro tables directly using the "SQL Server Manager" (on a W2K Server).

SQL Server handles all the table definitions and data loading. 150 (free) tables and about 1 GB took only about an hour to "upsize" with a bit of tweeking when it came to "empty/null" fields. SQL Server creates a little "job" for each table create/import.

I would be awfully surprised if Oracle did not have similar features. After all, using an ODBC driver from the "receiving side", the Server has all the information it needs to create tables and pull in the information (vs "pushing" it).

It may require having a chat with the "DBA" (unless you are them).
