Here is my question:
The date fields are coming over as character in 2013-10-16 format. Is there
a way to get date fields or do I have to convert them ?
The first thing you need to do is to look at the specification of the
database. I'd guess that what you're getting means that the dates are
stored as character strings, but there's nothing like knowing.
What I'm trying to say is find out exactly what you've got FIRST, then
figure out what you need, and then you can worry about how to do it.
Same with .NULL.s. FACT: They're in the data. FACT: There are several
easy ways to deal with them. UNKNOWN: What does the application WANT
you to do with them?
Actually, looks like you're doing pretty well.
