I am trying to create a process to import one (or many) files each time the process runs.

The filenames are similar to TL0401.PRN, TL0402PRN .. etc

I have tried putting in a wildcard into the filename with no success.

How is this suppose to be done ? Can there be logic to read files processed based on the date / time of the file ?

Thanks

After poking around I found the mask option, however I an still interested in knowing if there is a way to filter input file selections based on a date.

Thanks

It is all depends on what you mean by date...
Is it file creation date?
Or is date a part of file name?

you can use calculations in file names, check the documentation

I would like to use the file creation date as a criteria to be used to select files to be processed. ie select all files created on or after current date -1 day ..
