Re: DBExport/DBImport Problem

Greg, I think we could be more helpful if you gave us some details... I have be doing a lot of export/import between OWS and SE for many months and have "never" had an import fail that I exported the previous day/week/month... Are you importing into the same platform that you are exporting from (Some Online "features" are not supported in SE) "the next day"? The line(s) from the .unl file with the date data would be helpful. Are you changing the delimiters? Is the delimiter in the .unl data?
