Read the online help for the Folder stage, it will explain it. As I mentioned earlier, you can only declare two columns in that stage: 1 for the file name and 1 for the file contents.

The Folder stage does the actual 'reading' of the XML file, capturing two fields: the first returns the name of the file found and the second column is the entire contents of the file as one large object. The XML Input stage then takes that XML in as an input link and parses it. This allows you to p...

They are there... keep looking! The categories don't show in the job picker and the order they display in can be a little confusing at times, but all jobs are there. :wink:

That will get you the names of the jobs and will work in any Project. This may work for you as the version numbers are tacked onto the end of the job name in any VERSION project. For example: BigJob^1_1 BigJob^1_2 You might want to search in the Server forum for some names that start with APM from w...

This list will certainly help someone understand that there is more to encryption/decryption than meets the eye. There are many products out there that can integrate seemlessly with many tools and I was able to find a couple that can be called from DS. Sorry to resurrect this old thread - and I'm n...

You know, I actually had the word 'good' on the second iteration, and 'verified good' on the last one but took that out. I've had 'verified good' backups fail to restore in the past and... besides... it just sounded better with them all the same. :wink:

:!: Not everyone runs the Latest and Greatest.

Note the version the OP is running, peoples: 4. That's old enough that I don't recall it having anything like DSSendMail yet. If it does, then great - but I believe they will have to take the custom routine / script / batch file route noted above.

There is a first time for everything: I disagree with Craig (here's where I need a "pensive" smiley). No problem. Looking back over it, you are right - I was getting my scenarios mixed up. At least I can blame it on it being 2 o'clock in the morning for me. I didn't specifically state it as it's be...

Four or five important points, eh? Let's see... 1) Make sure you have a backup before you start. 2) Search the forum for the upgrade proceedure. 3) Make sure you have a backup before you start. 4) Search the forum for 7.5 'gotchas' and lessons learned. 5) Make sure you have a backup before you start...
