How to translate varchar into varbinary?

Hi everyone,

We're trying to migrate a varchar field from Sql2k to varbinary in a sql25k through a dtsx package. We get an error which tell us: "data will be lost".

Does anyone have any idea about that?

Thanks for your time and inputs,

Do it in the extract query, T-SQL supports explicit casts between those two types

DECLARE @.v varchar(10)

SET @.v = '0123456789'

SELECT CAST(@.v AS varbinary(10))
