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!This message has been edited. Last edited by: DWaybright,

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!
