Extract the first element from the field-mark-delimited string returned via the Execute Command activity's output activity variable.

Use Field() function or dynamic array notation (ExecCmd.Output$<1>).

Welcome aboard. If you are installing all tiers on one machine, then the firewall will not be relevant and you can ignore this requirement.

You can not do this. You can certainly provide Admin-only access to this project simply by not granting any other users/groups access. However, the Administrator has ex officio access to all projects. So you can't limit an administrator from the other projects.

RCP is set to "propagate" (it is enabled). NLS is on. This is propagated. You can't have it both ways.

Also look at your shared library search path. Make sure the 32-bit libraries are being found (at least for DataStage processes) - for example in dsenv make sure that lib32 occurs ahead of lib for any product.

What does your official support provider say? Have you checked (for example at Fix Central) whether there are any known bugs at your version of istool related to the -includedependent option? [I am aware that there are some problems exporting FastTrack components with this tool.]

Full outer join. Transformer or Filter with three outputs testing whether stream key is null, reference key is null or neither is null.

Transformer is likely to be faster at run time than alternatives such as Filter or Switch exactly because it's compiled.
