Specifying File-Related Options for
DataLoader/MP
DataLoader/MP has two types of file-related options: interpretations and modifiers. An
interpretation specifies the overall manner in which the contents of a file is to be
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/MP reads, converts, and processes a file’s contents by using the
following items:
