Robert!

You got it! That worked just great for me!

It's unusual that that restriction does not apply to USNAME, USADDR, etc. but it does to USPREP.

Thanks!

Thanks guys!

but it's still a problem.

Ray,
It is when I right click on CopyOfUSPREP and attempt to rename it that this error message occurs. It does not let me rename it.

Stuart,
I need to use this CopyOfUSPREP in a job.

Any other ideas on how to rename it?

Chulett, can you elaborate on "select a GUID via a Lookup or even as a source". How would I do that?

Count subselect error

I need some help tweaking a SQL query. I am getting an ORA-00937: not a single-group group function error. Normally I would fix this by adding a GROUP BY clause but that is not helping in this case. Is there a SQL quru out there that can solve this? To simplify the explanation of this SQL: the inten...

Brilliant, ArndW! Your suggestion worked perfectly!

I was unfamiliar with Message Handlers but after a quick bit of study I was able to solve this problem perfectly.

Thanks!

Standardization Truncation warning messages limit

In Production we have a MANDATORY standard of allowing no more than 50 warning messages when a DataStage job runs. However, we are having a problem with many of our DataStage jobs that contain a Standardization stage. The warning message in Director that occurs (more than 50 times) is: Stdize_Prvdr_...

I have discovered that if a job has too many warnings (50+??) then a signal is sent to interrupt the job. I had the same problem and once I reduced the number of error messages (null handling messages in my case) the problem went away.

[Ray,

Yes, I am. Sorry, I should have mentioned that. I know that I can use NAME_UNCERT if I was matching "SMITH JONES" to "SMITH" but how would I match "SMITH JONES" to "JONES"?

Thanks!

Matching on appended married names

Does anyone have a creative way to match last names in instances when a person keeps their maiden name and appends their new last name? For example, let's say MARY JONES gets married and changes her name to MARY SMITH JONES OR MARY SMITH-JONES. I need to match "SMITH JONES" or "SMITH-...
