    INSTR function search string for sub-string and returns an integer indicating the position of the character in
    string that is the first character of this occurrence.
    SUBSTR function return a portion of string, beginning at character position, substring_length characters
    long.SUBSTR calculates lengths using characters as defined by the input character set.

    The Logic to Send Half Records from Flat File


    Source to Target Database
    Reddy Sekhar asked Dec 25, 2011 | Replies (15)

    This is Reddy Sekhar K, I have the source flat file which contain 3000 records, I want send half records, it means
    first half 1500 records are load into the target; can anybody tell how can I achieve it?
    Have an unconnected look-up on you source to get the count of the table when first records comes in
    from source. Divide the count by 2. Also introduce a count variable to and increment it by one for each
    records. In the filter transformation pass only the records where count is greater than the half the
    value(total count divided by 2).
    You can also use sequence generator to generate count.
    If you have Unix, call the shell script as pre shell command, use the following command:
    head -1500 filename > filename1

    How to return multiple coulmn values using unconnected lookup


    HI,

    If you want to return multiple columns then go for Connected Lookup. When you are using

    UnConnected

    Lookup you cannot return multiple columns directly. So you need to Concatinate the Columns which you want to return
    in to a single column and separate them in the expression after returning.

    Unless you have any specific reason dont go for Unconnected when you expect multiple columns as output. As
    Concatinating and separating may hamper the performance of the mapping.
