Similar problems converting to Oracle...wonder if we should upload these somewhere to
form a checklist.  I've got one for the conversion process from MySQL to Oracle, but
the problem there is 30-character names for MySQL's 64 character...haven't found a
workaround for that one that doesn't require changing Moodle code.

This sounds like something that might be generally useful to other Moodlers...wonder
if you can sanitize it and upload it here in case someone else has a similar config.

Sounds like you got the job done..

Thanks for the follow-up.
