If field A is the key, a load like this can work:

Test:

SQL SELECT

A,

........

FROM Updates;

CONCATENATE

LOAD * from Original where not exists (A);

STORE Test into Original.QVD;

drop table test;

--Arun

Hi,

see the attached example for the code you need.

First: inital load of your data (you need a QVD folder for this example to store the qvd-file in).

Second: modify the data in the excel table and remove the comments ("//") from step 2 and 3 in the script

Third you will have your updated table if the script runs without errors.

Good luck!
