Question about an error message.

[James Bender]

Hi all,

I am saving data to a Sybase database with a data adapter
that call a stored procedures. The procedures have been
testing and work fine.

The problem is that when I do an update, they data in the
data is updated, but the update command of the data
adapter throw the exception "The data value could not be
converted for reasons other than sign mismatch or data
overflow. For example, the data was corrupted in the data
store but the row was still retrievable." Everything
seems OK, but obviously if it's throwing and exception
it's a problem.

Can anybody give me some backgroup on what this error
means? I can't find anything that really explains what it
is in the help or MSDN.

Thanks,
James

Yeah, I saw that earlier and it doesn't really help me.

It tell me it's an error, which I already know, but it
doesn't tell me how to determine which row/column it
occured on, or when for that matter.
