Hello, I just upgraded to TTU15 on a Windows 64 bit OS, and intalled all the goodies. Now I'm running a large monthly process where there are a lot of FASTEXPORTS And FASTLOADS to be done, all as BTEQ scripts run in a DOS window. FASTEXPORT no issues. Upon running the FASTLOAD, issues, I get "Empty file on read open" and it finished out with zero rows read, etc... yet the file is 5GB of pipe delimited data file.
Can some one please share with me a simple way to convert a straight forward BTEQ FASTLOAD run on Windows DOS Window to a TPT FASTLOAD that can be run the same basic way so the new TTU15 can process this data load? I'm hoping there is little change, like just syntax to the existing scripts. Many thanks in advance. Please let me know what additional detail you may need.
