BigInt Converted to Exponential Notation by Oracle 10gr2 instead of number

527434Oct 6 2006 — edited Oct 6 2006

We are having an issue importing data from a Mysql database 4.1 and the datatype is BigInt. When data loads into Oracle it is converted to exponential notation by the ODBC driver. I set the MySql ODBC 3.51 driver parameter settings to "checked" for the option to change BigInt to Int, but it does not work.

We know that Oracle 10gr2 can handle numeric datatypes greater than 20 length and this columns data is 16.

Even if I run an sqlplus query to it brings back exponetial notation also for the bigint.

Any ideas on how to handle Big Int ??

Thanks
