From the beginning of chapter 11 in Maria Roldan's book, I've configured a transformation and sub-transformation exactly as described in her book. I get the errors below. I've also used Maria's own transformations that she wrote (from the downloads included with the book) and rec'd the same errors. I can preview the data from the file, but the rest of the transformation doesn't work. thx.
