Hi,I want to design a job which have following data Input :

b           e     
c     d  
            s

and what to have output report as show below:

Code: Select all

Col1 col2 col3          Message
a      b    r           No null column
b           e           col2 is null
c      d                col3 is null
            s           col1,col2 is null

Fixed your examples for you. You need to use

Code: Select all

 tags to preserve whitespace.

Build the list of columns first, setting a stage variable to "col" when empty and ",col" when not. After all have been checked append " is null" to it if it is not empty when you add it to the output row or use "No null column" if it is.
