I'm annoyed. I've tried to figure this out before, but never with any success. Hopefully someone here can help me.
I have a notification activity in my sequence. The "To" email address is currently filled in with the actual email address (abc@myserver.com). I want to change it to use a job parameter.
Does anyone know what special characters are required for identifying that this is a job parameter and NOT an email address? My job parameter is DefaultEmailAddress. I've tried putting in:
DefaultEmailAddress
#DefaultEmailAddress#
It doesn't recognize either as a job parameter and tries to send the email to DefaultEmailAddress, instead of it's value of abc@myserver.com.
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

What exact version of DataStage are you running? If you have a later version that supports Job Parameters in the Notification Activity, you can tell from inside the stage.
Is there a 'browse' (...) button for that field? When you click it, does it open the External Parameter Helper dialogue? If so, it should work for you.
FYI - the answer is #DefaultEmailAddress# - when on a supported version.
