Chris,
Since Oracle cannot handle milliseconds, one of my colleaque wrote a stored
procedure to manipulate the date and then dump the sybase data into a flat
file and used sqlldr to load into Oracle.
Another solution will be load this date into a varchar2 column and use a
combination of substr and to_date to ignore the milliseconds. Will that
work?

I used bcp to get the database from a sybase database,
and plan to load the data back to Oracle. The only
problem is that I got the following defualt date
format from Sybase:
Apr 3 2001 10:29:47:000AM
What's the corresponding date format in Oracle?
('Mon dd yyyy hh:mi:ss:???AM')
And did anyone migrate the database from Sybase or SQL
Server to Oracle before?
Thanks,
Chris
