Subject: [pgadmin-support] Miigration Wizard ignores not nulls &
default values

Hi,

Noticed 2 problems migrating from SQLServer 2000 using pgAdmin
1.4.12:

1. NOT NULLs other than the primary key code migrate over
as NULLs
2. Default values are not migrated

I'm writing a script to fix these errors, but any advice would
be most appreciated....

Hi Roger,

Did you have the 'Don't ignore NOT NULL' option checked when you
migrated?

The default values are not migrated at all as you say (though they were
years ago). Primarily this is because they tend to cause too many
problems with syntax incompatibilities between DBMSs.

Regards, Dave.
