    Thanks, that was I was thinking....

    I am thinking how about If I get Recent file name from folder?

    Is anyone can please guide me how i can recent file name from folder in SSIS?

    Thank You,

    You want the most recent file from the folder?

    You'll probably want to do this with a script task, using some .net code.

    Heh... isn't that nice... someone took the time to create the DOS DIR command with a /o-d switch in C#. 😉 I don't know much about SSIS but why can't you use something like a CmdExec task and take the top 1 from that return? Better yet, isn't there some way to get and loop through a list of files in a certain order. Couldn't you setup a single iteration loop for such a thing?

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
