Re: SQL server to Oracle Migration

Thanks,

We are using the Oracle driver the comes from the OTN site. Do you know of a way using the Oracle driver to force the return values of a NUMBER(n,0) to SQL_INTEGER, we tried declaring the value in the schema an INTEGER and it was to no avail. Thank you for your help.
