field delimiter in CFF stage

Post by hitmanthesilentassasin »

Hi,

Is there a way to define a field delimiter in CFF stage? If yes, then please point me the place to do that?

This is not the normal way to deal with complex flat files. Usually you need to specify their structure (typically using a COBOL copybook import). Once you've extracted this data, you can use a transformer to sub field stuff if you need to.
3NF: Every non-key attribute must provide a fact about the key, the whole key, and nothing but the key. So help me Codd.
