OK, I haven't played with 7.5 yet. Will be alert for this once I get the opportunity.

Is it the same Transformer stage type, or have you chosen a Transformer stage in one place and a BASIC Transformer stage in the other?

Suggests that there is another Visual Basic object called UserControl extant on the system. What other software is installed on this machine that's not installed on the machine where things are OK?

You could look in the DataStage Director. De-select View Categories from the View menu, then Filter or Sort the status view. From this you can determine the ones that have been compiled or not. Much more difficult to determine which ones have been run, because they are run on your mainframe machine,...

I work on many sites throughout Asia where NLS is vital, and they don't get such warnings even when the default language is English(US).

It's purely informational. The underlying call to the script to send the mail was silent - indicating, as UNIX does, that it was successful, hence "no output from command". The other message alerts you to the fact that the server parameter mentioned in the dssendmail script was not assigned a value....

Export files are often fairly small. A USB floppy drive is sometimes a handy thing to own. Or, of course, a memory stick.

It's obviously a "feature" of the control. Did you report the inconsistent behaviour to Ascential? I've noticed in 7.1 that the scroll bars in the bottom left pane in the Transformer stage do not appear until that pane has focus, when it gets focus it seems to shake itself awake and realise "gosh, I...

What has changed between when you were getting 3000 rows/sec and 400 rows/sec. "Nothing" is not an acceptable answer. Nor is "the row rate" an especially useful answer. Is there some other load now occurring? What else is happening in the database? Is the network now more active, so that less bandwi...

"Object Variable or With block Variable not set." is an error in the client software, and indicates an attempt to use a property of method for which either an object does not exist or a WITH block has not been created. For example, instead of objSession.Transport = 1 the programmer has used .Transpo...

Does anyone have a preferred strategy for keeping the reference data up to date? When there's no match, the source data must be pushed through a STAN and then added to the reference data. The problem is when? What if the caller (DataStage job) elects not to commit? We've implemented a temporary tabl...

Looking for Talent

Do you think there would be value on having posters set a time limit on the Looking for Talent forum, after which posts could be removed? For example, this post seeks people for a six month contract in October 2002. :roll:

I just re-read the original post. Does it really say "cannot give exclusive permissions"?

If that's the case we're probably barking up the wrong tree.

Both server and parallel jobs have local and shared containers. Is that what you had in mind? For PX refer to page 3-1 of the Parallel Job Developer's Guide.

What is the value of your DataStage configuration parameter UVTEMP? If it is . this will cause many temporary files to be created in your project directory.
