can I head or tail a flat file and use them as parameter to a job.

We have to run our jobs with parameters coming from a flat file.

Any suggestions?

I have heard that I can use a hash stage and query it using routine to get the parameter file. But again its a parallel job.

Hi,

Use the execute command in job sequence , get the tail or head of the file using the unix scripts .
then pass the ouput of the unix script as a parameter to the 2nd job using
Execute_command .$CommandOutput

It works for me .

Thanks
