Hi all,

As per my req i need to get 1200 bytes of data.i want to know is there a max limit for the data because when i run and see the data in the Datastage then i get this issue:

"Warning : Data that exceeds the maximum display length has been truncated"

Not really from a practical user viewpoint, although there may be a theoretical limit. The "viewable" size is a part of the "view data" functionality of DataStage Designer and doesn't necessarily relate directly to how much data you can actually place into a column.

Are you able to view the sequential file outside of DataStage using other tools (less/more/vi/cat/text editor/etc.)?
