Answer / phani

By using File List we can Merge more than one Flat file.
when we are importing more than one flat file we should Set
the Source Property as INDIRECT,where default property ll
have DIRECT. and we should give the file,which ll have the
adresses of all the Flat files which we are going to merge.

Answer / jvdwhinfo

Hi Guys,

First of all create a new flat file and paste the location
of all the flat files in that newly created flat file.
Now import the source definition using "Import from file"
and define the mapping.
And assign the session properties as indirect file type of
loading and give the location of the newly created file.

This should do and please let me know if you want me to
discuss further.

Thanks,
James
