Ketfos, In the Basic documentation it says TRIM( expression, [,Character [,option]). Your trim is Trim(string, "D"). Trim must be thinking that "D" is the character rather than the option. Because it is thinking that the "D" is the character and no option then the rule ...

This topic has been discussed many times on this forum. Use the search function to find them.

Here is a link I found with a great explanation by Ray Wurlod.

Sravan, I don't think there is a set limit to the number of hashed files that you can have in a single job. The amount of hash files that you can have in your job will be limited by other factors. Such as the amount of RAM on the server. The design of your jobs. (I would be looking at you job design...

Hi Sravan,

Yes you can use hash files as a source as well as hash files as a target.

Or did you want to know if you could use them at the same time?

Sorry my mistake. Didn't have a copy of Datastage to double check if the pivot stage did both pivots. :oops:

The pivot stage should provide you with what you want.
Don't know if you need to install it as a plugin or not.

You should be able to read more information about the pivot stage in the plugin documentation. Should be in the docs folder in the datastage client folder on your pc.

You can also move the column orders around in a transform stage. Clicking on a field in the grid at the bottom of the transform window and dragging it above or below the other fields should move it.

There is a basic pdf file that comes with Datastage. Look at the built in routines and the SDK routines that come with datastage as a guide.

Yes it will be.

Are you sure that both the records are the same as the previous records at the same time in your data?

Your code should work based on the output of the Rowcompare routine.

Code: Select all

If (Not(IsNull((sv1)) AND Not(IsNull(sv2))) Then 1 Else If (Not(IsNull(sv1)) AND IsNull(sv2)) Then 0 Else 1
I assume that if the previous IDs aren't there then the Stage variable is null.

What is the derivation for the stage variables?
