I am required to move data from an sql server ntext column to an oracle raw column using sql-server's DTS facilities.

Oracle raw is effectively a hex representation of text so instead of 'ABC' you have '414143' which is the hex representation of 'ABC'.

I have seen how this is done the other way using the following :

Import Oracle raw into SQL server image datatype column.
bcp this to a filesystem file using following convert facilities : convert(varchar(8000),convert(varbinary(8000),image_column))
bcp this nack in to the ntext column using an appropriate code page parameter.

I would like to know if anyone has had experience moving sql server ntext to Oracle Raw data types.

Please let me know

Regards,

Neil"
