Executing a Transformation
If the executed transformation is an XQuery transformation, you can save the result as an XML file and view it in a browser.
To execute a transformation
1. In Studio, open the transformation.
2. Click the Execute toolbar button.
If there is no need for an input parameter value, the procedure is executed immediately.
3. If you need to supply a value for one or more input parameters, type a value or select Null (default) for each field in the Input Values for <resource> dialog.
Do not enclose string values in quotes.
4. In the Input Values for <resource> dialog, click OK.
5. If the executing task is successful, the Result tab displays the result set, fifty rows at a time.
6. In the Result panel:
a. To view the next fifty rows in a large result set, click Next.
b. To view the details of a specific row, select the row and click Details. For some extremely large results, such as those generated by using EXTEND on an array to generate BIGINT number values, some of the data might be truncated without a visual indication by Studio.
c. To save the results, use Save to File.
d. To clear what is displayed in the tab, click Clear.
