Writing / Reading Excel Spreadsheets

I'm doing a proof of concept on reading and writing to excel spreadsheets. I've created a spreadsheet with half a dozen rows and columns. I've created an ODBC connection and can read and write to the spreadsheet. BUT ! I put an @SUM calculated field on the end of the rows that totals them up. If I u...

parmDateTime is a job parameter and while I'm trying to solve this problem it has a default value of 2006-02-03 23:59:59 (no quotes).

This is the Before-Stage command :- DELETE from CONSORT_AUDITS WHERE DATE_ADDED > TO_DATE('#parmDateTime#','YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS') I don't know where the double quotes are coming from. As I say when I run in real time it work fine but when I schedule the job and log off, datastage adds the double q...

Unwanted quotes added to parameter

I am trying to schedule a job which is reading back from a production Oracle Database to a development environment (still Oracle), but I do not want any data that is added after a certain date. So after I have bulk copied the data I delete what I don't need using a before SQL command in an Oracle st...

ArndW,

Many thanks I followed your advice and located the routine.
It looks like the developer had commented out most of his/her PRINT statements but had missed one.

Thanks again,
Ian

Hi ArndW,

Yes I'm definately running version 7.5.

As to whether it's a PRINT or DSLogWarn command that is generating the warning I don't know. That's my problem, I can't locate the routine (assuming it is a routine) that is generating the "Sat to Sun no time" message.

Regards,
Ian

Thanks Ray.
I did use the pivot stage in the end although it was a tedious way round, having to split the data out into columns first then combining them back together again.
Leaves me wondering what the point of the row splitter stage is though ?
