Migrating Empty Date Values From TurboIMAGE
When I gave my paper
"Transforming
TurboIMAGE Databases" at HPWorld in Atlanta, there was a very good question from the audience
"I have fields like SHIPDATE, which begin life with a blank value and are updated
when the actual ship date is known. How do I move these datasets into SQL tables,
where the SHIPDATE field will presumably be of type 'Date' and where blank will
be detected as an invalid value?"
Excellent question! Click the link above for the answer.
