Somehow the Palette had a very limited list of groups: http://www.imgplace.com/img856/84/28p1.jpg See, now there is only one there! and the problem is that I can't even add them myself.

For example, if the first three parts of date function in unix is : Mon Aug 08 , we need to check the Last Run time contains the string Sun Aug 07. If you don't have gnu date, search for a tool named mktime. If you have gnu...

hmm.... not that obvious to me. I was having a hard time trying to decipher the following extremely simple case. Any help?

I forgot to set $APT_DUMP_SCORE to True when I initialed my project (so none of the score are written into the job log). I've now set $APT_DUMP_SCORE to True for my project, will my previous built jobs now show the score? Do I need to re-compile?

Thanks

chulett,

you didn't mention about null handling, can the DateToString() function take null parameter values?

Hi, Am I right that in the transformer stage, all kinds of variables can be used in output columns derivations, including transformer's own stage variables, job parameters, and user variables from the job sequence? How about updating the variables? Only the transformer's own stage variables can be u...
