Data Sources

Data sources define what data should be imported. Only admin users can create data sources. In this module, the data source is a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. Other possible data sources are:
  • CSV
  • JDBC
  • FTP
  • HTTP
  • XML
Data is not imported directly from a Data Source into the target table. The steps are:
  1. Load Data into a staging table
  2. Create Transform Map
  3. Run Transform to move data from the staging table to the target table
  4. Check data integrity
While transforming,

1) Do not use the string NULL in source data or in a script. NULL is a reserved word. Null and null can be used but not NULL.

2) Field Maps take precedence over Transform Map scripts.

3) Use the coalesce option in a Transform Map Field Map to determine if a row in the source data matches a record in the target table. The coalesce option makes a field a record's unique key. Set the coalesce value to true to use a field to check for collisions.

Transformation Script:

Transformation events occur during the process of transforming an import set table onto a target table. Transformation Event Scripts modify the transformation behaviour at different points in the transformation process.

Dynamically changing the combo box values in Javascript:(Lotus Notes)

"Error in Agent" or "Error loading USE or USELSX" running Out-of-Office agent after upgrading to Domino 6.x

Question After upgrading from one Lotus® Domino® server version to another (for example, 5.0.11 to 6.x), you find that the Out of Office agent does not work and produces errors written to the console and the log (if enabled). The error message in the Domino console is as follows: "Error in Agent ´OutOfOffice OutOfOffice´ calling script library ´Common´: Script library signer ´CN=ServerA/O=Widgets´ does not have proper rights Agent ´OutOfOffice OutOfOffice´ error: Error loading USE or USELSX module: Common AMgr: Agent ´outofoffice´ in ´mail\jdoe.nsf´ completed execution" Maintenance on the database did not resolve the problem, nor did replacing the design or running fixup, updall -r, or compact. Answer Agent security rights in Domino 6.0 were revised to be more robust. This issue occurs when the signer of the script library does not have the correct rights to execute on the Domino server, and/or the script library has not been signed in Notes/Domino 6...

Lotusscript to establish ODBC connection:

The script, when executed from a button, will create a new record in a specified ODBC data source, attempt to save the new record and display a message indicating whether the operation was completed successfully. If the operation is not completed sucessfully, it is likely that either your data source is read-only or your ODBC driver does not permit updates to the data source. Important: Complete each of the four steps below before running the script. 1. Create a new agent and add the following UseLSX command to the Options event: UseLSX "*LSXODBC" 2. Add the following script to the Initialize event of the agent. NOTE: Do not add the 'Sub' and 'End Sub' lines. Dim ui As New NotesUIWorkspace     Dim uidoc As NotesUIDocument     Dim doc As NotesDocument     Dim connection As ODBCConnection     Dim query As ODBCQuery     Dim result As ODBCResultSet         Set uidoc=ui.CurrentDocument ...
