Keshav, You are right. The ...

TrimLeadingTrailing(In.InputColumnName):PadString('','0',50-len(TrimLeadingTrailing(In.InputColumnName)))

Re: Sort stage outputs Fewer Records

Hi Poornima, I believe you meant inline sorting in join stage. I used explicit sort stage because we had existing jobs. I just wanted to know why there is a difference in the record counts. Since an inline sort is equivalent to explicit sort, I thought this should work. Also I am using an inner join...

Re: viewing the file using schema file definitions

Hi,
If RCP is enabled, you cannot view the data.

My understanding is
You are asking DS to propagate the columns at run time.
But you are trying to view the data at designt time.
So this is not possible.

Following is the job design (RCP is used) 1DB2 Stage ------------ 1Sort Stage ######################## ----- Join Stage --Dataset 2DB2 Stage -----------...
