As far as I'm concerned, Visual Studio 2010 Express C++ compiler is not supported.

Try installing e.g google chrome, set it as a default browser, and try installation again.

I also put a DSN Trace on, but that did not reveal anything crucial. I found this from the documentation ( http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27018822#info ): If you are planning to access 64-bit databases, they must exist on a different computer than the engine tier.

Actually no manipulations at all, also there is an error row saying:

SQLServer_Enterprise_5,0: Internal Error: (shbuf): iomgr\iomgr.C: 1882

I tried to google that but found nothing helpful.

Actually I figured it out, this works:

If DSLink2.Ozone = 'NA' Then 'NULL' Else DSLink2.Ozone

I was thinking this too complicated, thanks for your insights!

Thanks for the reply. My parallel job data flow is Seq. File --> transform --> seq. File In the first seq. File there is data in the integer column 1, 5, NA, 8 ... NA stands for a missing value. My intention is to convert NA --> NULL using If col = 'NA' Then Setnull() else col And this produces 0 in...

SetNull produces 0 instead of NULL for integer column?

I have a IfThenElse function/derivation in the Transform stage: If DSLink2.SalesAmount = 'NA' Then SetNull() Else DSLink2.SalesAmount DSLink2.SalesAmount is an integer column. When populating this data into a sequential file, I get a value 0 instead of NULL in the ...
