loop concept in Transfomer stage

[sainath]

hi

I have sample data in a column which i have to parse the code in each seperate row,

;abc;def;ghi;


when i tried to use while condition

@ITERATION <=Dcount (which is count of ';' delimiters) Datastage

is saying it is not valid...the datatype for Dcount is integer ...

please share your thought

thks

DCOUNT is a reserved word (it's the name of a function). Use a different name for the stage variable.
