Who cares. If you have need then go for it. It is fun making DataStage do something it was not designed to do.

I have been in some companies, who have bought Datastage and don't know why they did. They want it to do everything.
They used Datastage mostly as a scheduling tool and to run non-datastage jobs wrapped into datastage jobs to run in sequence :shock:

Hi Gurus,
Sorry for posting here, but iam expecting help from you Gurus.
I connect the physical datamodel to oracle through ERWIN. I want to generate schema of my datamodel into oracle.

I created a subject area, later on clicked on forward engineer/schema generation in tools tab of ERWIN.Later on choose the option set, and selected few options, clicked on Generate schema.

Its not generating any DDL statements.
its saying all commands must be de-limited[/b].
This is regarding ERWIN TOOL.

cheers;
vijay

Come on... you are expecting help from us, no matter the tool you are having issues with? Puh-leese. Seek help from the people you work with when you have questions like that.

Or from your friend, perhaps.

Visit DSXchange home page to learn its coverage. There should be no reason to expect help on ERwin, Zen, motorcyle maintenance, or any other topic from this site.

Twenty years later Robert Pirsig wrote his second book, called "Lola" if I remember correctly. Long time between books. Not nearly as good, in my opinion.

Why shocked? If you remember the sixties you weren't there?
