Why not do a wildcard download for the files, then use the Looping
example to load all files you have.

I am trying to figure out if I can build a dynamic text file connection in
the DTS Designer. The datasource will be a text file, but the name will change... Any pointer or links to articles would be helpful...
The issue I am trying to figure out is that I will not know the name of the
file on the remote server until I connect to it. I will open a connection to the remote Server, look into a directory. I will then see anywhere from 1 to several files, I will then need to download each file and DTS the info in each one for our database. I was first thinking I could get a list of the files from the remote server. (Have to figure out how to do that via SQL Server or similar means...) Once I have that I would iterate through each file and delete them when i was done.. [quoted text, click to view] "Allan Mitchell" wrote:

Unless I am reading this wrong, this is a fso which does not support FTP...
Since I have to connect to a remote server via FTP, I cannot use the FSO tools... [quoted text, click to view] "Allan Mitchell" wrote:
