When I attempt to use Oracle nvl or decode functions on date fields in
pass-through queries from Access 2K the Jet error "Invalid precision for

decimal data type" is returned. This happens with both ODBC and ADODB
connections to the table in question. A check of the table fields
verifies the data type to be date/time. I have tried various
combinations and permutations of TO_DATE and TO_CHAR on these fields
with no success.

Does anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks
Dave
