Hi
I want to create a shared container, which will be used in many jobs. So I need your help in this. The container will accept some parameters as input, then selects some columns from the oracle database using those parameters in the where condition and will return the new column values.
So I wan to know what are the stages should be used in the shared container and how. And how to plugin this shared container in the job.
Please let me know.

Thanks
Chandra

Hi Chandra

What's 'not working' about it?

It will be easy for us to help you if you can explain in brief what exactly is the problem.

You need to pass parameter values to a shared container via its Properties once the shared container has been painted onto the design canvas. This is done from the Repository view, but otherwise is an identical process to painting a stage onto the design canvas. It's good practice to click the command button that validates the input and output link names.
