Read Money format from SQL Server 2008

Question

Hi all,
i created a db link from oracle to sql server using Heterogeneous Connectivity, it works fine, i can read/write data from SQL Server 2008 but i can't read column with money format correctly, i got always a integer number.
Can anyone help me, please?

Hi Mark,
with the command
describe TEST@DL_SQLSERVER2008
i get the error :
Error: ORA-00904: "OBJECT_TYPE": invalid identifier
If i create a table :
CREATE TABLE TEMP AS (SELECT * FROM TEST@DL_SQLSERVER2008 );
the column of the table TEST with type MONEY is mapped to the type number(19,4)
With the query from SQL Server the output is :
Entita Serie     Articolo     Prezzo
1     AB      0207405      3,822
1     AB      0503019      3,60
1     AB      0509015      15,75
1     AB      0706015      1,96
1     AB      0810050      1,617
1     AB      STANDARD 0,00
With the query from Oracle the output is :
Entita Serie     Articolo     Prezzo
1     AB      0207405      3
1     AB      0503019      3
1     AB      0509015      15
1     AB      0706015      1
1     AB      0810050      1
1     AB      STANDARD 0
Thanks,
Sergio
