text file to parameter file

Hi all,

For incremental extraction from the source, i go for parameter file concept.

1) First i load start_date and end_date to a text file.
2) Then from text file to parameter file(via sequencer execute command activity)

This s the process i generally follow. I change it to a string and load it to the text file and then to a parameter file. Parameter file is also a text file. why cant i load it directly. Whats the problem in that. Please clarify.



Thanks in advance,

Hopefully that means you realized that you can indeed go straight to the "parameter file" since it indeed is just a sequential file.
