Can you please elaborate on how to go about with job2.

How can I write a SQL Query which is paremetrizeble.

Do you mean I can create a job parameter say "SQL" and put just "SQL" in the User defined SQL box of the DRS stage?

Thanks for the help.

Even if you use Job 2 twice in the sequencer.

Job2 will get executed only once.

So performance-wise both the options should be the same.

It's just a matter of convenience.

You can use the stages in the debugging/development category of the palette.
like the rowgenerator or the peek stage.

But can you post the exact requirement so that we can help you better................

Oh I am sorry!

I thought the quotes were just around the data, Not in between.
I should have read it clearly before posting the answer. :?
And as already said you can use the CONVERT() function.

The easiest way to do what you want is:

In the properties of the sequential file give the quote character as "

It will automatically ignore the quote " characters.

Hope it helps.

I want to insert values with a sequence in a table and a flat file. Please help me out. Thanks a lot. Hi Chulett, I did mention that the sequence value needs to go to two targets.
