Ok, that's another problem.
Apparently Progress is manipulated by 4GL language.
Consequently, 4GL allows writing more data than the field size is
defined for.
If you try to import this data using any SQL engine you will get errors.
The only solution is to adjust field width. I am doing this using data
dictionary.

Try to create a view using Progress SQL Explorer Tool, and then use DTS
again.
Although we do not use MERANT 3.60 driver but DataDirect 4.20 for
Progress 10.0B, it should not matter.
Usually what I do is:
Create View odbcuser.Customer_view As SELECT * From Pub.Customer;
commit;
Then I import it from odbcuser.Customer_view to Access or I suppose it
should work with SQL Server.

Subject: [Vantage][6.1] ODBC
When trying to pull tables from Progress into MS SQL 2000 using DTS and
the MERANT 3.60 driver, I get an error on certain tables, something like
they have too many indexes. This even happens in MS Access on certain
tables such as the customer table. I know that I can delete indexes
using one of the tools provided by Progress. (I would try it on a test
database first.) Has anyone else ran across this error when trying to
get tables out of Progress into SQL or Access?
