Not quite; MonthFromDate() returns a TinyInt which may only have one digit. That would need to be padded.

Code: Select all

YearFromDate(InLink.TheDate) : Right("000":MonthFromDate(InLink.TheDate),3)

You can see the entirety of Arnd's response.

Another possibility, to lose the first five characters, is to take the rightmost portion of the string:

Code: Select all

Right(InLink.TheString, Len(InLink.TheString)-5)

The directory in which ls.op is exists, but what about the directory it's meant to be listing? Does that exist and do you have requisite permission to it and its parents?

Sort and partition on the third column, which is declared as the "key" for the purposes of the Remove Duplicates stage.

Sequential Files don't have keys anyway. They are accessed sequentially.

The limit is not in DataStage - it's in UNIX, which is why you can address the problem with the UNIX ulimit command.

A process terminated unexpectedly. That's all the information you've provided us. What do you expect us to do with it? There are very many reasons a process might terminate. Were there any other warnings logged? Do you know - or can you ascertain from the score - what player 15 actually is on node &...

How is this question different from this question that you posted in the General forum?

Posting the same question in multiple fora won't give you better or more answers - it only serves to annoy those of us who read all fora.

Interview question?

Did you find nothing on an internet search?

I have a particular definition of subroutine that stems from a background in UniVerse BASIC; it's a section of code that is called from another section of code, but does not have to return a value.
