Hi ,

Did any one of u faced the problem of migrating VAX/VMS files having - float datat(8-bytes) to

oracle8i(windows NT) platform.

When using sqlldr for the same, there is a problem that VAX/VMS has different format for

storing float data, and sqlldr expects it to be in IEEE format.

any help is appreciated

Thx

Sam
