Critical Issue During Handling Comma Separated Flat File.: Assumed Answered

The document discusses an issue importing a comma-separated flat file where the 'Sal' field contains commas, causing it to be split into multiple fields instead of one. It provides the file structure and sample data, noting the 'Sal' fields like "3,000" should each be a single field rather than splitting at the comma. The response recommends setting text qualifiers to double quotes during import to properly handle fields containing commas.

Critical issue during handling comma separated flat file.

This question is Hi All, I'm using comma separated flat file for one my requirements. Structure is like below: Name,Sal,Technology John,3,000,ETL Paula,2,800,ERP Sam,963,SUPPORT Vito,1,900,JAVA When I'm importing it as a 'COMMA' Delimited file it is creating 4 fields instead of 3 and that is so obvious. I need to read the 'Sal' field as a single port

I am not sure how you implemented this. Please folow the following steps. Source Data: Name,Sal,Technology "John","3,000","ETL" "Paula","2,800","ERP" "Sam","963","SUPPORT" "Vito","1,900","JAVA" While importing source defination see the below steps. First screen will be like below.. Select import filed name from file and click on next..then next screen like bow..

screen will show text qualifier as default to Double quotes.

For exmaple: the source row is 102678$479EXCTREATY1$1978USD and this will be split into two rows as: 102678EXCTREATYUSD 479EXCTREATY1978USD
