What database do you wish to truncate? You can determine a job's status from the previous run at any time prior to submitting the current run request.

Sorry. Become one. It's not expensive, at less than 30c (Rs12) per day and is what helps to keep DSXchange alive.

The product itself has a web-based Director client (though this was unpopular and was dropped in version 8.0). You can also obtain DWNav from Kim Duke and there are probably other third-party solutions also.

You are already searching for an exact match because '$Table' does not include any wildcard character. LIKE is necessary because you are comparing against the entire DS_JOBOBJECTS record which will never have the value '$Table' alone.

You need to set NLS_LANG, an environment variable that Oracle uses to identify the character set. Search DSXchange for more information.

Go back to where you created this unnecessary account (the bin directory) and delete the following:
    VOC
    VOCLIB
    &SAVEDLISTS&
    D_VOC
    D_VOCLIB
    D_&SAVEDLISTS&

Do it sooner rather than later.
