Re: Metadata from Schema File

I would have expected that the Column Import stage will do a search by column name in the source file header, and if found, would correctly associate the corresponding values Bad expectation, I'm afraid. This isn't a database table we're talking about, it is a sequential file where everything is ha...

Different issue now. And you haven't explained the source or nature of this "lookup column" in your constraint. How is it derived?

Needs to be updated? No, not typically. Can be, sure, but generally works fine out of the box on UNIX provided sendmail is alive and working on the box.

Ah... it does need to be 1 to capture them reliably, however it seems like it should still have 'worked' after a fashion when it is set higher. From what I recall, Oracle would report the right number but put the wrong record in the reject file. It also depended on if your total row count exceeded t...
