Generic lookup with Datastage 7.5

Hi everybody,

My team is developping generic jobs with RCP. A fist version is 7.0. Migration to 7.5 is coming soon. We have a problem with lookups in 7.5. Since there is a graphical tool to define the keys, parameters are not allowed, unlike in 7.0.

Do you have a solution, or do i have to define the key column in the flow?

Would it work with the join stage? You might also be able to replace your lookup stages with a custom operator stage that calls the lookup function without the GUI. Not sure how this would go with job parameters and RCP though.
