It's not all that different from what you posted. Write to a hashed file keyed to remove duplicates in your data. Create a reference link to that same hashed file so that you are writing to and looking up from the same hashed file. Make sure the reference stage has the 'Preload' option either set to...

How did you try what they said? How is it not working? Details, man! If people don't know what exactly you've tried and in what way it didn't work for you, how can you expect them to help? Besides, it can save us all from alot of pointless posts... "Did you try X? "Yes." "And did it work for you?" ...

As noted, 'Enterprise' stages are only in the PX product. Always been that way. A couple of points. You can't just choose the 'Fully Generated' option and then click 'View Data'. There's quite a dance you have to go through to actually help it 'generate' the query. It works from the metadata in your...

Hmm... only if you are doing a new install or one where you import your old project export. An 'upgrade in place' of an existing installation will not require a recompile.

I had no idea anyone had a .dshome file in the root directory. You mean it is not a common practice to use the DSHOME environment variable? Just for completeness here... One constant across installs is the presence of a .dshom e file in the root directory. Since the $DSHOME can be anywhere, the .ds...

Nonetheless, the positional parameter marker ("?") complies with the SAE Access Group SQL standards, while the Oracle practice does not. Nonetheless, I find the positional parameter marker to be a PITA and the Oracle ones to be much more practical. I just needed to build a custom ODBC query with tw...

Well... this is where you move beyond my meager ability to help. I'm not following your input xml or exactly what you'll need to do to get that flattened out and into Oracle.

Hmmm... this is where it gets hard to help without actually being there.

If you don't think you've imported the metadata correctly - give it another shot. Make use of ...
