SETFILE creates a VOC entry. OPENPATH does not. It is just more straight forward. Cleaner. A VOC entry allows you to run TCL commands against the hashed file like SELECT. I apologize for the brief delay in getting back with the results as I was pulled into different things over at my work. Anyways,...

TRANS() does not need a file pointer. It uses the real filename. If you have the hashed file open then just read it. You also do not need SETFILE if you use openpath. openpath pFilePath to pFilePointer else ...error logic here read Rec from pFilePointer else Rec = '' Field7 = Rec<7> Thanks for your...

Help needed in utilizing TRANS() function

Gurus, I have tried searching the forums for a relevant answer and couldn't find it. Most of the answers were very helpful, but I couldn't find a topic which deals with using a TRANS() function from within a loop. May be I missed it and would sure appreciate it if you can point me in the right direc...

Even the OCI8 stage can interface with 10g using an 8i client. I don't think 10g was 'officially' supported until the OCI stage was included in 7.5.1a but that's not to say earlier versions were not compatible. Good to know...we have upgraded all our OCI8 stages to OCI9 using the utility IBM provid...

Thanks Craig. But I'm not allowed to create/drop/delete any table on production database using datastage. Is there any other work around? That's just a silly and stupid restriction. A 'connection' account can easily have its own 'schema' (whatever the DB2 equivalent is called) where work tables can...

Thanks Vivek. Let me put forward my understanding of your suggestion. You're saying, get the order_id into hash file and get everything from orders table (select * from orders) in db2 stage and then do look up on key columns(order_id) in the transformer stage. But, the problem here is if i do {sele...
