[CLOSED] updating a table with identity key

Hello,

I am trying to update a table that has a identity column as key using data Migrator.
I am passing the secondary key (ID) but
When I run my data flow I am getting an error
XXX Row(s) rejected due to no match. I think it is because the Identity can not be set in the flow. Can someone tell me how to overcome this issue of identity keys?

thanks,

VNF

Maybe it's just me but a little more info would help.

How many joins do you have? Have you tried switching the loader option? i.e. bulk load vs insert from memory?

Are you creating a new table or are you adding to an existing table?

let's say I have a table store with the following fields:
Store_key is an identity key,
store_id is a unique index,
store_name name of the store, etc.

I have a data flow that I want to update this store table. I can find the store_id but I could not update the record because iDM could not find a proper match with store_key.
Can someone please help me with this?

thanks
