Problem statement
A company has its database implemented on oracle database management system.
The size of company is not too large and There is large number of employees which
are more comfortable with using MS-access database management and has very less
knowledge of oracle DBMS. also the GUI feature of MS- Access is easy to
understand. So management decided to replicate complete database or some selected
tables as per user requirement from oracle to MS-Access. It is not an easy task to
perform manually by creating all table definition in MS-Access and then inserting all
the records. So they require an application software for automate the replication
process. The basic requirement of to be fulfilled by software are
1. Application must generate connection string on the fly. That is there is a
facility to input the connection information.
2. Establishes the connection to oracle database and report any error occurs in
establishing the connection.
3. Displays the all table names which are accessible by the user.
4. Facility to select one or more tables for replication to MS-Access
5. Create the corresponding table in ms access database.
6. The application can convert any number of tables that are selected by user
7. The application copies the content of oracle table to MS-Access table.
8. Also there is functionality to create blank tables without any data having same
table definition as in oracle.
9. Facility to provide the location where the replicated database to be created.

2. Software Requirement Specification
2.1. Introduction:
2.1.1 Purpose
The purpose of this documentation is to present the capabilities that will be
provided by software application “Database Replicator (From oracle to access) ”.
This documentation also states the various required constraints by which the system
will abide.
2.1.2 Scope:
The software product “Database Replicator from Oracle to MS-Access “is an
application which converts an oracle database to an access database. The application
generates the connection string on the fly by using connection information provided
by user. The application then establishes the connection to oracle database displays
the all table accessible by that particular user. Then user can select and convert one
or more table in MS-Access format. This application also provides the functionality
to convert only the table definition without transferring the content.
This application can be in situation where the some company has its complete
database implemented on oracle database, but some tables are required by a
employee for some further processing but employee doesn’t have knowledge of
oracle instead he has good experience of working on Access databases then oracle
administrator can convert that particular tables in MS Access format give it to him.
10
2.1.3 Definitions:
DSN: Stands for data source name
It specifies the source name from where the data is coming.
Connection string:
Connections string has information required to connect to a database. It generally consist
of information of provider, drivers, data source, user name, password etc.
Record set: Recordset object is used for the management of records that result from
database request.
DBA: - Data base administrator
2.2 Overall Description:
A data base is an ordered set of data that is usually saved in one or several files
that belong together. The data is structured as tables, with reference from one
table to another being possible.
There are various type of database management system are available for use like
DB2, oracle, MS-Access. All of them has their own advantages and
disadvantages.
MS-Access is treated comparatively simple than other database system in terms
of learning and using but not suitable for large databases.
11
Some time the user need to replicate the database of one format to another for
taking advantage of that database system.
The application “Database replicator from oracle to MS- Access” convert
database from oracle to MS Access format. This application is general purpose
that is it can convert oracle database of any size and consisting of any number of
tables. There is also functionality to replicate database schema without
transferring data. The application takes data source name (DSN), user name,
password, as the input. User must have proper right to use the oracle the
database. Then it establishes the connection to oracle database. After successful
establishing of connection the application fetches the table definition from data
dictionary of oracle database which is store in dollar tables. And uses this
information to the create access tables. The location of for storing the newly
created MS- Access data base is specified by user.

4. Algorithm for conversion process

STEP1: User enters the connection information.
DSN  Oracle service name
Username Oracle user_id
Password  user password
STEP2: Connection establish with oracle server by generating connection string on

18
the Fly
Conn_string using (DSN, Username and password)
STEP3. List out all the tables resides in oracle server.

Fetch the tables name from USER_TAB_COLUMNS.
STEP4: User selects the tables for conversion from table name provided in step3.
n number of selected tables
Step5: Create a MS – access database file at the specified location by user
For I= 0 to n-1 perform step 5 to 7
STEP5: Fetch the schemas of table(i) from oracle database .

Assign f  no of field in table(i)
For j= to f-1
Fieldname (j) = fetch field name from user_tab_columns view for particular
username
Data type(j)= fetch datatype from user_tab_columns view for particular username
Constraints(j)= fetch constraints from user_contriants view for particular username
Next j
STEP6: Create the table(I) in MS Access using the information acquired from step
5.
STEP7: Accessing the data of table resides in the oracle server in a recordset. Copy
it to MS Access record set
While not recordset.eof

Copy the content of oracle recordset to recordset associated with MS-Access
database
Update the MS-Access recordset.

the user must be closes other running program before going to use this application.
Because may be their some problem occur if other program is running there.
44
Conn._info Form(Step2):
Step2 form which called as connection information form. It is used to ask the
necessary information from the user to fill in the blank .that information is about the
oracle sevice name and their user and password verification and which help to
generate the connection string and establish the connection with oracle server.
Add_table Form (Step3):
45
Add table form which is step3 form .it is used to show the tables that are available
in oracle database. The available tables shown in the list1 and now user can select
their choice of tables what they want to be use for their application. The selected
tables populated into list 2.
Conv_setting Form (Step4):
46
Conversion setting form which is step4 form. It ask the user to select the
appropriate choice for conversion setting like user wants to create only table
definition or they want all the data information with their respected tables. User
also provide the file name and location where they want to save their file.
Conversion Form(Step5):
Conversion form which is step5 form. It is used to provide the view to the
user that they can see the tables with their respective fields. The first list show the
selected tables and list 2 show the corresponding fields. And user can proceed the
process of replication by clicking the convert button.
47
End Form(Step6):
The end form show the conversion is in progress…
After the completion of conversion process a message is generated that show
the message “Table converted successfully”. Which indicate the all the selected are
now converted into MS Access form.
7.Test Cases:
Test case id:1
Before Execution:
48
Purpose: To test the login functionality
Prereq: The oracle services are running
Test Data: loginID = {Valid loginID, invalid loginID,
empty}
password = {valid, invalid, empty}
dsn = { valid oracle service name, invalid
service name}
Steps: Steps to carry out the test.
1. visit Login Page

2. enter userID
3. enter password
4. click connect button

Expected output • if login information is correct then
• display connection successful
• else
• display connection fails

Post condition Connection established with oracle server
After Execution
49
Purpose: To test the table selection functionality
Test Data: None
1. visit to table selection form

2. Select any table name from list box1
3. Click add or add all button
Expected output Selected tables transferred in listbox2

Post condition Selected Tables are removed from list1 and
added in list2
Test case id: 2

Before Execution:
Test history none
result: Connection successful
If fail, any possible reason Login information is incorrect
Any other observation none

A company has its database implemented on oracle database management system.

understand. So management decided to replicate complete database or some selected

process. The basic requirement of to be fulfilled by software are

1. Application must generate connection string on the fly. That is there is a

facility to input the connection information.

establishing the connection.

4. Facility to select one or more tables for replication to MS-Access

5. Create the corresponding table in ms access database.

7. The application copies the content of oracle table to MS-Access table.

table definition as in oracle.

9. Facility to provide the location where the replicated database to be created.

The purpose of this documentation is to present the capabilities that will be

provided by software application “Database Replicator (From oracle to access) ”.

The software product “Database Replicator from Oracle to MS-Access “is an

application which converts an oracle database to an access database. The application

to convert only the table definition without transferring the content.
