Hello
I am running a DTS (Sql 2000) and transfering data from an SqlServer
database to an Ingres database.
I am transfering 153k rows.
Execution fails with the error message:
"The number of failing rows exceeded the maximum specified"

The number of rows shouldn't be a problem because in another DTS I copy
a lot more rows.
Also the width of the row shouldn't be a problem, I'm transfering only 3
int4 fields and 1 char(5) field.

Anyone have an idea what the problem could be ?

Thanks

David Greenberg

This error means that there is one or more rows (depends on [Maz erroe

There is an option in a Transform Data Task which allow you specifiy
how many records may be dropped before entire operation is failed.
Right click on a Transform Data Task and select Properties. In
properties window select Option tab and modify Max error count in Data
movement frame, this property is set to zero by default. The most
common reason for this sort of errors to happen is the NULLs in source
rows and destination doesn't allow them.

I hope this help.
