use a pre sql statement....but this is a hardcoding method...if you change the column names or put in extra columns in the flat file, you will have to change the insert statement

Hi,

          For getting the column names in the flat files, you need to make changes in the Informatica server setup. Under Informatica Server setup-> under configuration there is a option you need to check, Output Metadata for target flat files.

This should resolve your problem.

Thanks
Ravi.

Hi,

   Create two file targets,the first target is loaded with the hardcoded column names and in the second file with actual values.In that particualr session there is a post session command in that we have merge the two file using unix cat command. so the format will be first row appears with all the column names and from second row it displays the actual values.

Regards
Mamatha
