> Hi All

> I was attempting to migrate a large MSSQL2000 DB when I was 
> surprised to be inform that I had duplicate entries on the 
> primary key. I then update the type map for int to be int8 
> and date to be timestamp which helped but still gave me 
> problems.  I then realised that the tables that where 
> failings had timestamps as part of there primary keys (log 
> tables).  On investigation I found that the milliseconds

> MSSQL2000 only show seconds by default for a select
> i.e. 2001-12-04 09:57:08.950  becomes  04-12-2001 09:57:09

> Fix:
> 
> For timestamp fields replace 'select datefield from tables' 
> with 'select CONVERT(char(30), datefield, 121) as datefield 
> from table'
> 
> This was harder than I expected as the current code does a 
> select * to import the data which required me to create a field list.

> I have implemented this fix and attached is the patch and the
