Hi

I have data in a sequential file, and there are some date fields which are NULL. So i used the APT_IMPEXP_ALLOW_ZERO_LENGTH_FIXED_NULL to handle null while creating the Seq file, but now when im using this to load the table i get the following warning message. Im not sure why i get this message (i believe since i used the new env variable im getting this )

warning message:

Transformer_2,0: Conversion error calling conversion routine timestamp_from_string data may have been lost

can somebody help me.

Setting this environment variable can, as the information you read (and, indeed, posted) about it tells you, prohibit re-import. That's why my preferred approach is not to use this environment variable but to use Null Field Value property values that match the size of the fixed-width field.

I did that and it works fine now. Thanks...
