I have a workbench that reads .dbf tabular data and .shp spatial data and writes both to a Fgdb. It works fine if I manually point to an existing gdb but when I try automate gdb creation by exposing the "fme_dataset" and use that for a location and filename, via fanout, it only writes the tabular data. I can get it to write the spatial data but it comes out in another gdb labeled "null."
I'm guessing that since the dbf and shp and not directly linked the writer doesn't see the "fme_dataset" based gdb as an option. I've even tried directly linking the table to the shp with an AttributeKeeper but its still creating a second "null" gdb instead of inserting the spatial data in the "fme_dataset" based gdb.
