Likely, the best way to pull the Lotus data in would be to save the
workbooks (one sheet at a time) to CSV (comma separated) or tab delimited
text files. Once you have the data in that format, you can use SQL*Loader
to "import" the data.
In Oracle, you'd first need to create the tables with columns that match the
workbooks you wish to bring into Oracle. Then after you've saved the
workbooks as CSV or TXT files, you can have SQL*Loader do the work of
loading the data into the tables. If you need assistance with how to use
SQL*Loader, see the Oracle8 Utilities document. For More Information
