File Set stage: Output page

The Output page allows you to specify details about how the File Set stage reads data from a file set.

The File Set stage can have only one output link. It can also have a single reject link, where rows that have failed to be written or read for some reason can be sent. The Output name drop-down list allows you to choose whether you are looking at details of the main output link (the stream link) or the reject link.

The General tab allows you to specify an optional description of the output link. The Properties tab allows you to specify details of exactly what the link does. The Formats tab gives information about the format of the files being read. The Columns tab specifies the column definitions of the data. The Advanced tab allows you to change the default buffering settings for the output link.

Details about File Set stage properties and formatting are given in the following sections. See Stage editors, for a general description of the other tabs.
