Type mismatch with Oracle database

[gssr]

I am trying to load a single record:
Error Message:
Type match failure for field TRANSMISSION_DATE; APT Schema has string, dbms has type 12.

Oracle type 12 (see the DUMP command) is date, you are supplying a string. Use StringToDate() to convert your string to a date type.

Thank you,
I converted the string to date and its fine now
