Hi,

I have situation where I have to look at a particular column. if my rating is A or B, I have populate the new rating column as Yes else blank. i.e.

I wrote this statement in tmap :

New Rating = row2.Rating.equals("A")||row2.Rating.equals("B")?"Yes":""

but it throws

Exception in component tMap_1 (test1)

java.lang.NullPointerException

local_project.test1_0_1.test1.tFileInputExcel_2Process(test1.java:13291)

at local_project.test1_0_1.test1.runJobInTOS(test1.java:17157)

at local_project.test1_0_1.test1.main(test1.java:16994)

What M I doing wrong..? thanks for help!

This can be closed now. I figured out the problem. It was due to no values in rating column.
