Tips, Tricks, Gotcha's & Best Practices:
- You should use the same dataset name which is created by using "ddCreateDataSet" command.
- You can optionally pass the status of the Data file along with the name. Allowed values for status are 'W'(WIP) and 'A'(Active). If the status value is not passed, the status is assumed to be 'A'(Active).
- As a best practice, it is always advisable to define the variable names without any spaces and if you want to differentiate the words, use underscores.
