Set correspondence between the source text file columns and the target DB2 table fields:

• select a field of the target DB2 table in the Fields list;
• double-click in the text viewer area to add vertical separators delimiting the source column bounds;
• click the area between the separators to assign the column to the selected target table field - the selected source column gets black highlight;
• repeat the operation for all the fields you need to be included in the import process.

The Fields list also allows you to view the following values:

Pos represents the starting point of your selection;

Length displays the width of the selected area.

You can change these parameters manually or by moving the slider in the grid.

If necessary, you can choose to skip a defined number of the source file lines using the Skip lines spin-edit.

If the source text file and the destination DB2 table have the same order of columns, you can use the Auto Fill Columns button to set correspondence between them automatically.

The source file character set can be defined at the Encoding field.
