I am starting to work with ODBC and Excel database queries. ultimately, I need to get a data warehousing application to acquire the desired data via ODBC.
I have a file that has 55 attributes in it, but 750 dictionary records. I created a 'clean' dictionary file with a cleansed dictionary of the items I want, and the data section points to the true data file. Not all fields are referenced. for example, I want attributes 0-5, 12-17, 32-48, and a few virtual fields, such as getting the name of the customer from another file. Everything in VSG comes up fine; I can see all of the dictionary records I want, and I add them to the table view and save the view. When I do the database query from Excel, it only offers to import fields 0-5; none of the other defined fields in the view are in the list. When I fire up the data warehousing application and do the ODBC SELECT, it also only finds fields 0-5, and none of the other fields. I haven't found anything in the UniData documentation that helps me figure out why. Do I need all of the fields defined contiguously (0 - 55)? Any help is appreciated!
