I'm having to write a new series of Datapump projects and processes with files that change the name daily. A0140125.txt, a0140126.txt and so on. I can't find where you enter the wild card in the Input area?
.. I have a feeling that's not the right spot.
I have 17 of these to do so before I start I think I shoudl answer that question Version 7.. by the way.

Thanks

Bill, try this: on the XPRJ Editor's Input tab, select the current input file, then click the Edit button. You can then edit the current input file name so that any file of that file type will be utilized, e.g., by replacing Report1.txt with *.txt.
