Hi,

In file, I am getting data as 20161017 i.e. date and 4 spaces if proper timestamp is not present. There are some blank and spaces are also present in other records.

I am trying to load data by:

     ,CASE WHEN CHARACTERS(TRIM(:EMI_PRE_CLR_DTE))>8 THEN CAST(:EMI_PRE_CLR_DTE
       AS TIMESTAMP(0))
      WHEN CHARACTERS(TRIM(:EMI_PRE_CLR_DTE))=8 THEN
      CAST(CAST(SUBSTR(:EMI_PRE_CLR_DTE,1,4)
      ||'-'|| SUBSTR(:EMI_PRE_CLR_DTE,5,2) ||'-'||
      SUBSTR(:EMI_PRE_CLR_DTE,7,2)
      AS CHAR(10))||
      CAST(' 00:00:00' AS CHAR(9))  AS TIMESTAMP(0))  ELSE CAST(  '2010-09-01 00:00:00'AS
     TIMESTAMP(0)) END

But it s not working its giving error msg as 5407: Invalid operation on an ANSI Datetime or Interval Could you please suggest correct way of loading timestamp in table?

Thanks & Regards,
