Hi,
I'm trying to use csv files as source/ synonym for one of our procedures and it doesn't work , looks like data server is unable to find the file although it exists in the app directory . I configured Flat File Delimited Adapter, what else should I do?

For a flat file you must either issue an APP FI or a filedef for it to be able to find the file

The other option, less versatile, is to specify the location of the file in the master file.

FILENAME=..., SUFFIX=...,
 DATASET={app path / full path}, $


Waz...

you can use the wizard in the dev_studio, by right clicking in the area of your master files,
new > upload data file
after using the wizard you can look at the master and access file for the right syntax.
