One job to select data, do all the transformations and then load to 6 flat files, identical to your target tables.
A job for each table.
All together 7 jobs. Keep it modular. Will help in restartability. Also keeps the segments well defined.

Never mind the display property if you are able to view the complete data when you change datatypes. Display is next to the length in the column's tab. As the name suggest, it limits how much data you can view. But if you drag the column end, you can extend it. But as I said, that does'nt seem to be...

I have seen scripts being invoked from jobs as well. But these are mostly for reasons other than control. Otherwise the control becomes confusing and linked in various ways. I am not a big fan of that design.

.odbc.ini and uvodbc.config files are to be configured if your using an odbc handle to connect to the database. If your using native clients then you need to install clients at the server end. Set the variables associated. Thats it. Details can be found in DataStage manuals.
