IS IT POSSIBLE TO USE DATASET AS A SOURCE FILE?..

Answer / arshad basha

Initially we cannot use the dataset as a source.cause it is an internal format creation of datastage. if the source file is in the format of flat file means then we select sequential file as a source and dataset as a target.After this creation we use the target as a source for the next step. .ds is the file extension of dataset.

Answer / dilip anand k.

Nope. Dataset can never be used as a primary source or a
final target. It can be used only as an intermediate storage
or intermediate source and a target. This is because,
Dataset is something that is proprietary to Data stage and
is understandable only to Data stage engine and none other.
