Upgrading from oracle 8i to oracle 11g

673082Jun 17 2009 — edited Sep 4 2012
current Oracle version is 8i
front end is visual basic 6
OS is windows xp
client OS is windows xp

I guess this question has been asked a lot in here.

But i guess i have some extra queries here

-> I m using oracle 8i and now I want to upgrade it to 11g. Is there any complications. I mean can i simply export a dump file from oracle 8i and import it in oracle 11g using imp tool, importing everything. If not what are not imported and what are other complications and consequences.

-> My front end is vb 6 so is there gonna be any problem. If it's unsupported which version would u prefer for vb 6

-> Can i install oracle 11g in windows xp or at least can i install oracle client in xp.

-> what kind of server would you suggest for oracle 11g.


Is there anybody to help me out here as quickly as possible.

Thanx a lot
