Hi all,<br>I am having a problem pumping data from and oracle8 database to sql server. The table in question has 9000 rows in the oracle database. The import runs to row 6537 and then comes up with the following error:<br>&quot;insert error column51 ('sale_date',DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP), status 6 : data overflow&quot;<br>I have looked at that row in the oracle table and there doesn't seem to be anything unusual about the date in there. This problem is happening in a number of tables. For other tables the date fields import no prolem!
 
mfd777<br>PS. Bottom of error states:<br>&quot;Invalid character value for cast specification&quot;<br><br>Thanks in advance
