Set the "incomplete columns" rules in the Sequential File stage - scroll right in the Columns grid. Use Help for full information. Put an output constraint on the following Transformer stage so that the header and trailer records are not processed. These techniques are taught in the "Programming wit...

Dirk, In the column definition of your input file, define the extra columns (when comparing last row with rest of the data rows) as Nullable and in the "Incomplete Column" section, fill them in as "Replace". This way, your DS job would not abort. regards, At 10:38 AM 10/19/2001 +0200, Dirk Moolman w...

I have a job loading a text file. The first line is just a heading, which is easy to handle. My problem is, the last line is a trailer record that should not be loaded.

We use Microsoft Visual SourceSafe for all of our source code control. It has good integration with VB, and can be used in development teams quite happily. It also seems to be quite robust and does the job well. You can setup SourceSafe so that it either supports multiple simultaneous check-outs of ...

Before we start coding with VB6 I need to put in place a source control policy as the traditional methods dont suit. Does anyone have some rules and / or tools on how they control their source libraries, both test and production. Any advice on this would be most helpful. Thank you.

Actually, I have found one glitch. If you use READBLK, SEEK or WRITEBLK, and expect to read/move/write a number of bytes, beware that they actually process a number of characters. This is not as documented, but did break a couple of programs I use in the UniVerse Internals class. There is a workarou...

Alliances are very common as a marketing mechanism in Japan. Its an entirely different commercial world than what those of you in "the West" are used to. For example there was an alliance between Ardent and Microsoft - Ive got a carry bag and tee shirt to prove it! Dont worry about it.
