You have to tell Oracle there is something at the end you want to ignore (my default format is 'DD-MON-YY HH24:MI:SS'):
SQL> select to_date('Feb 7 2005 12:00:00:000AM','mon dd yyyy HH24:MI:SS') from dual;
select to_date('Feb 7 2005 12:00:00:000AM','mon dd yyyy HH24:MI:SS') from dual
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string
SQL> select to_date('Feb 7 2005 12:00:00:000AM','mon dd yyyy HH24:MI:SS":000AM"') from dual;
TO_DATE('FEB720051
------------------
07-FEB-05 12:00:00
1 row selected.
By the way, if you have "AM" in your data, I bet you use 12 hours time and not 24 one.
The format should be:
SQL> select to_date('Feb 7 2005 12:00:00:000AM','mon dd yyyy HH:MI:SS":000"AM') from dual;
TO_DATE('FEB720051
------------------
07-FEB-05 00:00:00
1 row selected.
