Hi All,

Is it possible to read .tot and .dbf file in datastage either in server or in parallel? I have never came across those files. Your suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance!

DBF is DBase, so there should be ODBC drivers for that. No clue what a "tot" file is. You'll need to ask whomever is giving them to you.

I dont have anyother information yet. It is still in the design phase and I was asked whether datastage supports these kind of files.

Can you read them using Sequential file stage? Try requesting for a sample and see if you can do so (I am talking about the .tot file, of course). You were already informed on what to do with .dbf file by Craig.
