  • You've got several concepts going on here that you need to learn before you can get all the way through the task. Here are a couple videos that cover some of what you need.

    1. Looping Through and Loading Files with SSIS. What did you mean by "process" in your original post? If you're not planning to load the files to a database, ignore that part of the video. The first part of the video will show you how to setup a foreach loop to look at each file in a folder.

    2. Learn how to write an expression, and use it to set the connection string of a file connection manager dynamically in SSIS: Adding a Time Stamp to a File Name in SSIS. This video will show you how to write an expression, and also covers looking at files using an expression.
