Hi ,
I would like to know is it possible to do a lookup on the fields of two look up hash files as I am trying to drag and drop the field but it remains red.I have made them as keys too and tried but they still remain red.Please suggest.
Thanx

If you mean you want to use the result of the first lookup in a key expression of the second lookup, then as Kim notes it will stay red but will compile and run. Lookups are done in order, so make sure you've got that right!
Can't say if that behaviour will stay consistent across future versions as it is (technically) 'illegal'... hence the redness. If you mean something else, let us know.
There have been a few spirited discussions on the 'legality' of the technique in the past, so don't see a need to beat that old dead horse. Suffice it to say it does work now, may not in the future and if you want to not have the red, use two transformers.
