Rules and Guidelines for Loading Mapping Specification Results to a Flat File

Due to differences in flat file formats, some mapping specification results may not be loaded to a flat file.
Use the following rules and guidelines when you load the mapping specification results to a flat file:
Verify that the load file name does not contain non-English characters.
If you select a file name that contains non-English characters during the load process, the generated .txt or .csv flat file displays incorrect file and column names and incorrect data. Specify a file name that contains English characters.
Verify the number of rows in the mapping specification results.
If the results of a mapping specification contain a very large number of rows, the load operation may take a while to complete. If the load operation hangs, contact an administrator to disable and recycle the Analyst Service and cancel the load job from the Data Integration Service.
