How can we do null handling in sequential files..

Answer / phani kumar

Sequential file doesn't handle nulls. If the file contains
nulls, then it gives records while reading the file by using
sequential stage,only records which are not having nulls.

In order to handle nulls, there is a option available in
seq.file as NULL TO VALUE. Here, we can give any value for
replacing of Nulls.

Then, DS Engine will consider those symbols are nulls while
reading the data from sequential file.

Thanks and regards,
