Match specifications and pass definitions are stored in the repository. When you're using Designer you can see the former (they have MAT on their icons) and the latter (they have PAS on their icons).

Is it possible to run a Standardize stage with an out-of-the-box Rule Set (AUADDR, for what it's worth) yet change the striplist? Some of the addresses are email addresses, so I want to preserve the "@" character by removing it from the striplist, ideally without modifying the rule set its...

The job activity in the master sequence that runs the child sequence would appear to be "Run" rather than "Reset if required, then run".

What do the colon characters do if executed at the operating system shell prompt?

First off, lose the DIM statements. They're misleading both us and the compiler. Second, each iteration of the loop is overwriting Ans variable. Is this really what you want? If no, why have the loop at all? 3. Always detach any job you attach to a routine. 4. Your logic is reading the log backwards...

See response to duplicate post in Data Quality Best Practices forum.

1. It's not urgent for us. 2. Please explain why this question falls under the heading "data quality best practices" or post it in the correct forum. 3. ^@ (or Ctrl-@) characters are not junk. These are ASCII NUL characters, presumably padding Char fields based on the string pad character ...
