Hello there

We have a few small but critical Oracle databases currently running on a
Solaris platform. Is it possible to import the product of an Oracle
export, filename.dmp, directly into Postgres? The dmp file is binary not
sql text :-(

(Looked through faq's and archives)

All suggestions most gratefully received
Many thanks

Colin
