We are in the midst of a v4.3 to v6 upgrade as well.  We have been having =
problems with the upgrade.sql script getting an "invalid sql statement" =
error.  We have just identified the problem.  Is this the same error you =
are getting?

   I=92m looking for anyone else that is using Kronos.  We are trying to =
upgrade from Workforce Central v5.1 to v6.0 and have been having problems. =
 They have a script, called upgrade.sql that has an anonymous PL/SQL block =
in it that does a lot of dynamic SQL.  That block aborts part way through =
as they are trying to convert all of their text fields from varchar2 to =
nvarchar2 (and char to nchar and clob to nclob).  There is no exception =
processing in the block and I=92m having trouble determining which table =
it is aborting on.  We are creating the test database by cloning from =
production.  The vendor says that we have to copy production to test via =
export / import to do the upgrade successfully.  My answer to that is that =
if we can=92t successfully upgrade a clone of production, then how can we =
upgrade production?
   My question is: Has anyone successfully done this upgrade?
=20
We are on Oracle 10.2.0.4 Enterprise Edition, upgraded from 9.2.0.6 just =
prior to the Kronos upgrade.  I know that this is a bit off-topic, but =
hopefully someone here has done this and can help point me in the right =
direction.

Thank you,
