Hi, Mr. Weisser, maybe this could solve it.
Add this NULL - Value - Interpretation directive (the other definitions may be different...) to the bottom of the .command - File, that is parsed by the loader. ... INSTREAM FILE 'some_table.data' COMPRESSED UTF8 DECIMAL '//./' SEPARATOR ',' DELIMITER '"' DATE INTERNAL TIME INTERNAL TIMESTAMP INTERNAL NULL '?

So I coded an small Java-program with the Java-Class "Loader", which is produced by MaxDB-programer. In this class I can extract an defined table from one DB-instance in a data-file. This data-file,which is like a text-file, I can import on an analog way with a loading-command in another DB-instance. My problem: If there are NULL-values in the table, the extracted data-file contents question marks for NULL-values instead of space character. If I want to load this data-file with the loader-class, I alway get a exception, because the datatype for this colum is not compatible with strings. My Question: Can I make an setting, which defines, how NULL-values are extracted in a data-file? Thank you very much for you help. Ralf -- "Feel free" ? 10 GB Mailbox, 100 FreeSMS/Monat ...
