Hi.
Can anyone tell me the exact name of the DataStage document that describes DataStage Basic functions such as DSSetParam?
Thanks,

You will find it with the DataStage client software, in a folder called Docs.
If you are running a release of DataStage 4.2 or earlier, however, you will need to download a UniVerse BASIC manual from the IBM web site.

The BASIC manual is really a reference manual; it's where you go when you really have a good idea what you want to do and just want to check that you have the syntax of a statement correct, or want to know what options are available for a particular function.
For a beginner I would thoroughly recommend the Developer's help (the help you get from the Help menu in Designer or Manager clients). As well as the usual reference material, there are quite a number of "how to" topics. I suggest you find the topic "BASIC Tasks" and drool down from there.
And a big rap for Ascential for a well-produced, helpful, help file.
Among other things, it's meant that I could teach the Japanese version of DataStage in Japan even though I speak only a few words of the language.
