Hello all, Source Table(Flat File):- Target Table(Flat File):- Date ..

Answer / kal

The simplest thing U can do is

while importing the source flatfile using "Flat File Import
Wizard"
In Step1 choose-> FixedWidth
in the step2 -> click and create a column or tab on the
field then U can import them as 2 fields
1. 01/08/2008
2.(DD/MM/YYYY)

U can ignore the second column and use the first one.


second method is by taking only the date value in
Expression Transformation.

Hope this of any help

Hi, I've a mapping with flat file source The target update override property for the target table is using update stmt. There is no update strategy between source and target. Also The session has the target properties as Insert , Update as update options checked. Does this mean that recs will be inserted only and the update override will not be applied at all. Thanks
