The number of arguments in any DataStage Server Routine (the kind you call from a Routine activity in a job sequence) is fixed, not variable. There ought to be no need to interrogate the number. I ... makes sense. just to confirm, the argument type in a routine should always be a scalarit cannot ta...

Prabu - I hope the column is nullable - yes. Since the the error is at export, for test, try with a sequential file to a dataset. Hi Kumar, Yes, the column is nullable. I miss the point here, why a dataset as target :roll: . my target is a sequentia file and it expects the null to be handled as a p...

Are you getting the same issue as Cetin getting? it's not allowing me to load the seq file, if the field value is null and the null value property is not set.
