Skip Character

Controls how many characters are skipped when evaluating SQL columns to determine if they are a match.  For example, some shops use a notation scheme where the first two characters of a column name identify the table and the remaining characters identify a column.  An employee ID column might be AREMP01 in one table and EAEMP01 in another.  If you use this type of scheme, set the number of characters SQLThing should skip when attempting to match columns.

Column in Logical in Source, Column in Logical in Target
