...to add more detail to Craig's response, the problem is usually the fact that any random space or stray CRLF is just "noise" to an xml parser (such characters are formally ignored by the xml standard)....but a stray set of blanks, or a CRLF, or other odd character can ENTIRELY change the...

It sounds like an error in the method you are using to read the document from disk. Are you using the Sequential Stage? If this is true, change your job so that it uses the External Source Stage, and sending a "list" of xml documents to your xml Stage... Go to my blog url below and click o...

We'll assume you know how to get that entire tagged string as a row in a single column. For what you are doing, and these few columns, it is very easy.....however, you should spend time looking thru the many threads here on XML, and spend time with the documentation..... ...send this single column i...

first, be sure you are comfortable with the MQ stage. Have a test job that sends data from a RowGenerator or Transformer into MQ...be sure you are getting what you want. Best way to practice for XML is to have one large column going into MQ. second...test sending output direct from XMLOutput. Have a...

Not sure about the reporting, but how about using a Filter on the Info Server Administration Tab, "Users" view.....an advanced filter lets you select something like "Workbench User" and then only get a list of those users that have that specific role....

There are no right or wrong ways, but I try to find the best "single" way to bring in the new "table" once you have things ready to roll into production.....it's not always possible, but if Cognos already knows about the new changed table, and has new report(s), then re-import th...

Which column is your repeating element? (with key = yes on the input link)? It should be your DEP column.

It "could" be. But also, consider that the XML Output Stage is a sort of aggregating stage....unless you are using a trigger, it has to collect all of your rows before letting anything go....it also could just be a reflection of your job....if the "whole job" is your "whole ...
