I have an Excel file (which has data imported from Oracle 11G Database) one of the fields is a Date Filed which has values like 28-JAN-11 03.25.11.000000000 PM ( Date field is Oracle Time Stamp(6) in Database )

When I am trying to Import that Excel file to another Oracle 11 G database (for another database/application), I get an error because the data field is not being recognized by Oracle 11G --> Import is being done by ORACLE SQL Developer (Table (field) has TIMESTAMP(6) as the datatype)

Change your default date/timestamp format.

Why don't you use data pump export & import? It is designed for what you are trying to (unsuccessfully) do with an Excel file.
