Re: Problem Importing Special Characters

  I created the second database based off of the first database. If a table colunm is defined as CHAR(5) then it should also be the same in the target database.

  I double checked the colunms in question and they are all identicalially defined as VARCHAR2(30).

  I was prompted during import for words like S&P, Müller and Sägen. But the strange thing was that it wasn't for every record with these special letters. Other words imported with no problem from the 250,000 records I was only prompted about 20 times.

  What could make this happen some times and not all the time? Received on Mon Feb 28 2005 - 08:37:31 CST
