Gail Badner - you closed my issue (HHH-9445), is that because it is really the same as this one? You didn't give a reason for closing it. Also, this issue is also marked closed. Does this mean that it won't be fixed.

To add to my issue (even though you closed it), I did try today to type each of the columns in the mapping (e.g. type=) but it didn't help. I updated the stack overflow question I had made. The link is in HHH-9445.

If this is bug, will it be fixed or should I find another way to do what I need to do?

Thanks.
