comment Performance Hit when upgrading to Oracle 11gr2
The question was closed because it was difficult to know what was going on and the OP either wasn't able or willing to provide potential answerers with the information that they needed. I hope you are able to get resolution on this but in order to do so, you may be asked for more information.

comment General tool to load dump files
an alternative option for SQL Server would be to create a linked server. another alternative would be an ETL tool like Pentaho's Kettle product to move data between servers.

Also also, if I understand you correctly, when you run that query by Aaron, I'd expect you to not get any results because you're necessarily eliminating anything with the offending column type, right?
