  Hi,

  The aim of this exercise is to

  - unzip the xml file (*.xml.gz file) from network map drive

  - load into table (xml file) in xml column with name of the file in different column.

  Can you please tell me what SSIS tools I can use to achieve this or some sample packages I can refer to.

  Thanks for your help in advance.

  Hi

  I simply use 7-zip for that:

  Configure Execute Process Task with settings

  Executable: C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7zG.exe

  Arguments: -wc:\TEMP e \\SERVER\share\myfile.tgz

  WorkingDirectory: \\SERVER\share

  Ofc you need to run package on user account with proper permissions to shared folder.

  Sorry, but your next problem is not too clear for me to make a good suggestion.

  Regards

  Mike

  If I understand correct, read the file name using a script task and assign the name to a variable.
