Hi,
Yes U can do it by merging all 10 flat files in one single
file.
create a script before session(presession) to merge all
these files into one.

Yes we can load all these flat files in a single session.
First create a txt file and in that give all the file names
along with their PATH.
Drag any one of the flat file into the mapping and link it
to the target acc. to your requirement.
And in the session properties give the file type as Indirect
and in Filename option, give the file name(along with the
path) of the file in which you gave all the paths.
Then run the mapping.

Hi,,,TCS,,,
Have you attend Recently for TCS,,,?
You need to load 10flatfiles to One relational source,,?
You can keep 10flat files in a single folder.Just assign
the folder path as a Source path in SESSION PROPERTIES.
it will make it 1 flatfile source.
By a simple Mapping,make it single Relational source.
