GET DATA FROM .DBF FILE, ORACLE 9i

[revelation]

Hi all..
Just to the point.

Case:
I take all *.dbf file from oracle 9i installed in Solaris 9.2 system.

I want to read the content/data from those .dbf files on my PC (Windows XP).

Question:
1. Is it possible to read the data from those .dbf file without installing oracle in my PC?

2. Is there any tool to do it?

3. If it is not possible, is there another way that should I do to get the data?

Any comment, answer, recommendation will greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

It may be possible but you will not get properly formatted data looking into data file directly.

Best way is to export data from solaris and import into windows oracle installation.

You need to run exp command to export and imp command to import into existing database.

Run exp -help to get the proper syntax.

The DBF does't mean that this is Dbase file.
It can be any extension.
And encripted by Oracle
