Hi,

I am a newbie in SSIS and creating one. The requirement is that a new text file should get created based on the input data from a table. I added a Flat file destination to the data flow. But can't assign a flat file connection to it since the connection requires a file to exist. If I enter a file name that does not exist in the connection manager dialog box, it can't get the column names and so doesn't let me proceed. Any ideas?


Thanks in advance,
Gauri
