data sampling
I have a requirement where I have multiple flat file sources.
I need to create sample data from each source.
Example:
Source 1 has 10 flat files--
member, transaction,item,email,....etc
Now if I get any 10 records (say first 10 records) from the member flat file, I need to find those matching members in the rest of the files (transaction, email,etc) using the respective keys.

Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried doing something like this thru a script?
