I have a DTS package that is doing a simple query from a sql server table and placing the data in a mysql table. I've insured that both tables are using the same data types. Problem is, I'm getting a status 6: data overflow error.

Has anybody been successful in transforming data from sql server to mysql?

TIA,
Mark

Nope, but just for kicks, create a new table in MySQL as all text.

I'm thinking your problem is a numeric column, and the data is out of range.

For example, try putting a BIGINT into a smallint column

BOOOOOOM

And I don't think the datatypes between the two are really compatable...
