    Hi,

    I've a problem with multiple packages with a merge join (full outer join) with a conditional split resulting in new, update and delete paths.

    I've a merge join which combines data from a staging table and a destination table. I'm using a merge join with a key (but other packages with mmultiple keys give the same problem.. An initial load is working properly but when i rerun the package it seems that the keys are NOT matched properly. What could be the problem?

    Greetz,

    Hennie

    What is the datatype of the join column? If string, any casing or spacing issues?

    Hi Joost,

    I've already solved this issue. Thanks for your time and answer.

    Forgot to sort one of the input queries (duh) resulting in totally strange behaviour of the Merge join ;-)

    Thnx,

    Hennie
