Non-pipe (or non-virtual data set) with .v in its name Error

[Srimeenadevi]

Hi,

Getting this error

main_program: Data set, file set, or file "Trim_Data:TrimmedData.v": Non-pipe (or non-virtual data set) with .v in its name

The source is a fixed width file. The output is a pipe delimited file. There is a transformer which trims the spaces. Please help.

Thanks.

Hi Prem,

The parameter used in the job do exists in the parameter set. Is there a possibility of some other error?

There were special characters parameterized in the job. They were given in single quotes in the stage variables.when they were changed to double quotes, it worked.

Thanks.
