Is there a way to join a single row table in InfoAssist if there is no key field? I have a table which consists of a single row of processing dates I want to use to filter the data in my main table. I'm not sure how to do this in InfoAssist.
Thanks!

Not sure if applicable to IA (WHERE ... IN FILE ...) but having your file in ALPHA format you can then have it in a WHERE clause such as below pseudo-code.
Assuming that there is only one date in the file.

TABLE FILE DATE_FOR_FILTER
PRINT FLT_DATE
ON TABLE HOLD AS DTE_FLT FORMAT ALPHA
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE abc
...
WHERE myDt_Field IN FILE DTE_FLT;
END

I successfully joined a non-keyed flat file to another file and got results. It gave me a warning it wasn't indexed but still worked. I joined the single row table to the other table.


Thank you for using Focal Point!
