Specifying File-Related Options for
DataLoader/MX
DataLoader/MX has two types of file-related options: interpretations and modifiers. An
interpretation specifies how the contents of a file are handled. A modifier stipulates a
more specific attribute of a load, such as the maximum number of records to be
transferred. Interpretations and modifiers are passed in the file name to the open
procedure (DTLOPEN).
This section explains the two types of file-related options and describes how to control
the way DataLoader/MX reads, converts, and processes file contents by using:
