You may be right. Tim is saying 32 to 64 bit conversion. What about 64 to 32
bit conversion alongwith change of platform? Is there any viable option
other than export and import regardless difficulties of size and bug
handling?
Will datafiles will be converted? My point was export and import with change
of platform. Besides in my senrio it was moving from 64 bit database to 32
bit database as well.
With my long experience with Oracle since ver 4 and 5, I never trusted
export as the best solution although they have improved a lot and famous
message' abnormal end of file' while import has gone.
away now.

I agree with Tim. Newer features with export import may not work!
For example export/import of XML DB xml documents/tables with registered
schemas for version 9.2.0.4 at this time doesn't work correctly. According
to Oracle support, I have to re-register the schema and then try an import
of the tables. I'm upgrading to 9.2.0.5 to see if it's fixed. If not
development will do a bug fix on the later patch version 9.2.0.5.

the task, then I strongly disagree.
Export/Import is riskier and slower.
Upgrading the software and performing the 32-64 bit update according to the
plentiful documentation on Metalink is faster and safer than exporting and
importing. It's really the only viable option for a database of any size.
