Import from Oracle into SQL*Server Slightly off Topic...

Hi All,

We have a bunch of people here (Sponsored by toys'r us no doubt) that a= re
trying to get data from Oracle into SQL*Server. I know this is off topic for this list but hey no harm in trying.

The import utility that comes with SQL*Server (uses ODBC) has problems importing quite a few tables.
I have the feeling that it has something to do with the number field wi= th
precision.
Anybody here with experience with this matter???

Jack
