Received the same error. It seems that M$ access
was passing a time '0:00:00' format at the end
of a date field that I was trying to import into
oracle using sqlldr. It just wouldn't fit. The
moral of the story is that it's best to export
all data from M$ access as a text file, then use
a bind variable in sqlldr to change it into the
column datatype of the oracle table you made to
accept it. Example:
column_m
position(10:20)"to_date(:column_m,'DD/MM/YY')",
