Exactly - don't re-invent the wheel unless you are extremely bored or have time to properly address the challenge. Ken has already done all this hard work for you and gives it away for free. The only 'limitation' I've found is in the parameter handling which works well 99% of the time but occassiona...

Use one or the other, not both. All dsjob options are explained in the Server Job Developer's Guide in the Command Line Interface section. Note that section is way down near the end of the DataStage Development Kit (Job Control Interface) chapter in said document.

Seems to me the only way to avoid having to type in and match 99 'words' each time would be to load them once into some kind of lookup structure. Then parse your source down and throw each one against that lookup to see if you get any hits. Other than something like that, I don't see how you do it "...

Welcome. Help us help you - provide more detail about your problem. Simply stating your error isn't enough - describe your job design and what exactly is going on when the error is thrown. I get the impression you are reading a flat file but that would still be a guess.

I asked for the exact version - 9.2.0.4? 9.2.0.8? Makes a difference, some are buggier than others.
