I’m guessing it has to do with the Date Field in oracle.
I ran the same process on sql server express 2008 and it imported without any errors.

Does anyone know how i can get the import process to work with sql server 2005?

Thanks in advance

    you probably are using the new date dataypes in sql server 2008 which do not exist in 2005 like datetime2. in sql server 2005 the datetime datatype only goes back to January 1, 1753

    so you either have to store them as string in 2005, or change it to 1/1/1900

    or

    use sql 2008 with the correct data types

    take a look at this, as you can see the first date is not valid

    select isdate('15000101'), isdate('17530101'),isdate('20080101')
