SQLServer has NChar but Datastage does not have NLS

Post by Thamilton »

I need to read/write to a table with columns that are NVarchar & NChar. This is a database froma vendor. We don't have the need to implement these datatypes in our day to day business.

Is there a way to read/write to the columns without installing NLS?

Just switch NVARCHAR to VARCHAR and NCHAR to CHAR in your job.
