I must state here that my data is 248555.00 so its clear that spaces are being added in between digits. and 248555.00 is thus becoming 2 4 8 5 5 5 . 0 0 Just wanted to point out that no spaces are being added to the data, that's just how that particular message represents the data, i.e. with all of...

Meaning your search didn't find anything or you read all of the posts, tried some things and nothing helped?

Out of curiousity, when the job aborted did you try resetting the job from the Director? If so, did it add anything to the log saying 'From previous run...'? If so, post the contents.

1. It should come with 'base' release of 8.7 but should also be simple to add to your existing release. 2. Documented in each release. Start here and choose the release you are interested in reading about. This is a direct link to the 8.7 pdf for the XML Transformation Guide, the documentation for t...

Speak of the devil.

First you need to verify that the compiler you are using is one of the ones officially supported for your version on your O/S for use with DataStage.

Go through the Programmer's Guide pdf, every dsjob option is documented there. And there is a specific section called Accessing log files which will answer your question.

Thanks for updating us!

Oh yah, that too.

OK... not sure why you would use count to get the filenames but regardless you have them. You must also have it in the Transformer as you need to pass it to the XML Input stage so it knows what file to read, yes? Clarify for us what exactly it is you need to do with this filename, where it needs to ...

As far as I know, you can select any job type as long as it is multi-instance. Are your Parallel jobs multi-instance?

Depends. Can you be a little more specific with your question or the situation you are worried about?

As Ernie noted, you have the name of the file as that is what the ESS passes to the XML Input stage. Have you tried simply passing it on?

Best to start by posting in the correct forum and the TX one wasn't it. I've moved your post here.

So what have you tried so far? What issues have you faced? This article by Ernie Ostic has much good information in it on the subject.
