Hi I have a source (flat file) like
ID Name Attachments
101 abc [07012005072902]_CMM27-11-01 Page106
(2).pdf
102 bcd "[19012005124259]_Anfrage-Vendors.doc
[19012005124336]_Anfrage.xls"
103 def "[19012006092602]_IMG_0310.JPG
19012006092631]_IMG_0311.JPG [19012006092702]_IMG_0312.JPG
[19012006092727]_IMG_0313.JPG"
But I need to generate duplicate records based on
attachments column.
Target (Table) like
ID Name Attachments
101 abc [07012005072902]_CMM27-11-01 Page106
(2).pdf
102 bcd 19012005124259]_Anfrage-Vendors.doc
102 bcd [19012005124336]_Anfrage.xls
103 def [19012006092602]_IMG_0310.JPG
103 def [19012006092631]_IMG_0311.JPG
103 def [19012006092702]_IMG_0312.JPG
103 def [19012006092727]_IMG_0313.JPG
103 def [19012006092750]_IMG_0314.JPG
103 def [19012006092814]_IMG_0315.JPG
Here no. of Attachments we can't decide because it is
dynamic.
It will be great if somebody help me on this.
Thanks in Advance.

Well make the (id, attachment) as unique or primary key
instead of id being primary key. Hope this solves you
problem, if not come out with clear requirement.

As far a i understood ur scenario u need each attachment
with its ID and name.
For this you can have a simple mapping made in Informatica.
SQ ----> Expression ----> Target
In Expression create the following:
Input/Output Port: ID
Input/Output Port: Name
Variable Port: Attachments_var1 ---> CHR(32) || TO_CHAR(ID)
|| CHR(9) || Name || CHR(9)
Variable Port: Attachments_var2 ----> REPLACESTR
(0,Attachments,CHR(32),CHR(10) || Attachments_var1)
Output Port: Attachments_out -----> REPLACECHR
(0,Attachments_var2,CHR(32),'')
From expression output the fields to target (Flat File),
you might get your answer
Note: the first record has a space in the attachment name,
that needs to be looked into

What is a passive transformation?
What is lookup transformation?
what is dynamic cashe

What is target designer and target load order?
How will u find weather dimension table is big in size of a fact table?
How can informatica be used for an organization?
Why use shortcuts(Instead of making copies).
In a mapping i have three dimensions. If i want to pass a same surrogate key value to all the three dimensions by using one sequence generator is possible?If the mapping is containing single flow? And in the same case if the mapping is contaning 3 flows for the three dimensions then by using one sequence generator can we populate surrogate key (same value) to all the three dimensions?
