Frank M. Ramaekers Jr. -----Original Message----- From: CMSTSO Pipelines Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mark Pace Sent: Friday, August 20, 2010 2:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [CMS-PIPELINES] Null/blank value I have a file that contains my customer information formated as such FORM: Customer Customer_Name: Some Customer1 SysProg: Jane Doe Phone: xxx.xxx.xxxx email: [email protected] $UpdatedBy: CN=Mark Pace/O=Mainline " FORM: Customer Customer_Name: Some Customer2 SysProg: John Doe Phone: email: [email protected] $UpdatedBy: CN=Mark Pace/O=Mainline I want to put it in a file as such Some Customer1*;*Jane Doe*;*xxx.xxx.xxxx*;*[email protected] So basically a CVS file using an *;* as the delimiter. I have this pipe 'PIPE (end \ name TTCUST.EXEC:12)', '|< ttcust data a ', '| sy: find Customer ', '| spec 17-* 1 /;/ n', '| fin: faninany', '| > ttcust data2 a', '\ sy:', '| ph: find SysProg ', '| spec 11-* n /;/ n ', '| fin:', '\ ph:', '| em: find Phone ', '| spec 9-* n /;/ n', '| fin:', '\ em:', '| find email ', '| spec 9-* n', '| fin:' And it mostly works. If a field is missing I would expect a record with only a ; delimiter, but I am getting nothing, the field is just missing. I realize in the test exec that each filed comes out as a seperate line and I only have to do a JOIN after the faninany to create the one record. My question is why I don't get a record if say the phone number is blank? -- Mark D Pace Senior Systems Engineer Mainline Information Systems _____________________________________________________ This message contains information which is privileged and confidential and is solely for the use of the intended recipient.
