I'm having problems using the odbc migration tool to convert data from oracle to mysql. When the '&' character is encountered in a field on the oracle side (as in 'Bob & Ted'), the column data is not carried over to MYSQL for that and each subsequent row.
example
Oralce data
idno, first, last, amount, date
1 Joe Jackson 100 03/03/04
2 'A & B' Lastname 200 03/04/05
3 Mary Young 300 01/01/01
converts to
1 Joe Jackson 100 03/03/04
2 NULL Lastname 200 03/04/05
3 NULL Young 300 01/01/01
This only happens if I choose 'run immediatly'. If I save it to a SQL script it works and import later it works fine but the tables are huge so it would be speedier to be able to run immediately.
