Property | S/T | Description |
|---|---|---|
CodePage | S/T | This translation table determines which encoding to use for reading and writing data. The default is ANSI, the standard in the US. |
MaxRecordLength | S | Maximum record length of the data. The default is 32700 bytes. |
OccursPad | S | When using COBOL files, you may have fields of variable lengths. If so, you may select one of the following to specify how to fill the field with pads to a fixed length: • None (the default) – leaves the fields uneven. • End of Record – fills the remainder of the record with your specified pad character. • Within Group – fills the field with your specified pad character. |
RecordSeparator | S/T | Specifies what sort of character is used to mark the end of a record. The default record separator is carriage return-line feed. To use other characters for a record separator, click the RecordSeparator cell and click once. Then click the arrow to the right of the box and click the desired record separator in the list box. The list box choices are carriage return-line feed (default), line feed, carriage return, line feed-carriage return, form feed, empty line, and no record separator. |
ShortLastRecord | S | If set to true, short reads are ignored on the last record of the file. In other words, the last record is processed even if the End of File (EOF) is reached before reading the end of the record. The default is false. |
StartOffset | S | If your source data file starts with characters that need to be excluded from the transformation, set the StartOffset option to specify at which byte of the file to begin. The default value is zero. The correct value may be determined by using the Hex Browser. Note: This property is set in number of bytes, not characters. |
