Hi,

I have configuration file from which I have to extract attributes headers for excel file.

I have managed to bring as shown below...

A,B,C,D,E

Now I want to convert this to attribute header A B C D E

attached a screenshot for better understanding... Could any one throw some light and suggest me...

I think I have a nice workaround: writing to a temporary CSV file and then reading that back in.

I think the AttributeSplitter is the transformer you need.

It is making list rather than attribute header.

If you need to use A, B, C... (Excel column names) as attribute names of an Excel reader feature type, just leave the "Feature Names Row" blank in the reader parameters when adding the reader to the workspace.

Why not inspect features with Visual/Data Preview and Feature/Record Information before writing them into a destination dataset?
