Question

Defining a published parameter with an "Advanced Browser" option


Forum|alt.badge.img+1
Hi,

 

 

I want to create a published parameter that prompts on run-time, the user to open multiple files.  I have tried to set the Type to "Filename (Existing)" and the configuration as in the image below.  But this only allows the user to select one file at a time, rather than multiple files.  Is there a way to create the parameter so the "Advanced Browser" option can be enabled?

 

 

Thanks,

A trick.

 

Add a file-based format reader temporarily.

 

Link a transformer parameter to the source dataset parameter of the reader.

 

Delete the temporary reader.

Also, I would like to do something similar, but this time add an Oracle Table as a Published Parameter.  Is there a way to do this?  Thanks
