Hi,
I have 5 different files with different columns and I would like to load them into SQL tables via SSIS.
I have the option of writing 5 dataflow tasks. however is it possible to load them dynamically with just 1 dataflowtask

    Hi AshishNZ,

    We can use just one Data Flow Task , and then drag 5 Flat File sources and 5 OLEDB destinations.

    One source or one destination can only read one type of structured metadata.

    Please refer to the following links and pictures:

    Multiple streams

    Populate external metadata columns

    dynamically with just 1 dataflowtask

    SSIS isn't that dynamically, you have to fix define the data source for each CSV file with matching data types, same for the data destinations.
