RE: JBA Reporting

Unfortunately not.  If you have two records which are identical, and you add
a column with INP95 in each record, your records will still be identical ;-)
We are stuck with using the RRN, and when we want to REORG INP95 we have to
refresh the table in order for it to be updated with the new RRNs.

Kind regards,
Bill

I have not used  Transformation Server, but would it be possible
to include a Constant field that contained the file name (ie INP95)
when pushing the data out to Transformation Server tables?
You could then use this as part of unique key.

Just wondering,
