Hi, I am trying to read some data that is stored in several subfolders in the FME share resource data folder. It seems like the process didn't like the wild card ie.. Data\\foldername\\**\\*.csv
Any pointers/ work arounds?
Thank you in advanced for any help you can provide.

Hi @gerry,
Have you tried using forward slashes? The Directory and File Pathnames Reader Parameters documentation suggests to use forward slashes (/) as separators, as they do not conflict with either glob escape characters or UNC path names. Single backward slashes (\\), for example C:\\data\\*.dgn, may be treated as escape characters, leading to incorrect interpretations.
