Dave,

You should be able to get the Oracle creation scripts and convert them to DB2
relatively painlessly. Oracle is more flexible than DB2 and most Oracle 
databases
do not used fixed length numeric values. What help do you have on the Oracle 
side?
If you sit down at a PC with access to both systems you should be able to run 
Toad
and Operations Navigator to pull scripts from Toad and then use Ops Nav to 
rebuild
your files. Once you have the files re-created, I would use a Java program to 
copy
the data using a select and insert loop for each file.

We have a large legacy Oracle database (40 GB) that we would like to import
into DB2/400. What are our sensible options for creating a DB2 version of
this database retaining as far as possible the data management information
such as field names and attributes? If we could at the same time create
access paths based on those in the Oracle database that would be a bonus.
This is a one time load - it does not have to be kept current.

Dave...
