One of the columns I am trying to read in is a Integer. And, when I have data for instance as 10.45 (which is a decimal) I want to be able to reje...

Ray, I was reading this article from a while ago. Can you throw some more light on why Stable Sort is slower than not using it ?? I take your word on this at the same time want to know more details in terms of architecturally why it is designed like that or why it behaves like that ? I need to take ...

Set Null

In version 8x, If I use SetNull() function in the transformer to set the value of a column to null, it is setting the column value to "NULL" but not the actual null like the @NULL function in Basic Transformer.

Does any one know why? Or how to get the actual NULL inserted?

Thanks.

1) Run in sequencial mode
Doesn't the number of sessions we specify in mload script represent parallelism???.

For such a big load of 750 million rows with pre delets I would rather take the multi load path rather than the Enterprise stage as I can do both in one mload script.

Re: how to call a sql server stored procedure?

There is a before and after sub tabs in SQL tab in DRS stage, you can paste the sql for dropping foreign keys in the before tab. When the job executes, the sql in the before tab gets executed first and then the main sql for loading the table executes.
