Hi Kamal, As far as I know you can not import all metadata from excel to DataStage. What we have done in the past is the following: - Create an excel file having your field names in different rows (1 row per field). Then transpose those rows to columns (using paste special) - Once you have done this...

In the Manager, use Import > Table Definitions > ODBC Table Definitions to do the import rather than the ODBC MetaBroker. Also check the Show System Tables option.

Theres no convenient way to load file layouts directly from Word or Excel (or any other format for that matter) into DataStage. What you end up doing in importing the layout of the spreadsheet! If the source file has first line as column headings (or even if it doesnt) you can import the "table defi...

You are better off putting a filter onto your SQL statement in the Ingres stage so that you dont have to process the non 567 rows in DataStage. For this you will need an ingres where clause, if it is a text field try a Left function Left(empno, 3). If it is a numeric field you can use a number range...

I wouldnt fault Ascential for this. Parameters are passed by reference, not value. When you pass @NULL (or anything else as a parameter) it has to store the value some place so it can send the address to the called function.

Yes, you have found a bug ... in your code. DataStage function parameters are passed by reference. Why is your first routine changing the parameter? If it is by design, then dont pass the constant @NULL to it. -----Original Message----- From: Benoit_Murray@dmr.ca [mailto:Benoit_Murray@dmr.ca] Sent: ...
