Re: [fme] Record order in Destination Dataset

[Jeff Konnen]

Hi !You can order the datasets by dragging them up and down in the list on the Navigation Pane (or was it right mouse button, move up ...? I can't remember, and I do not have FME on my homecomputer .. :-))The reading order is influenced by that setting.
If you don't have any group-based transformers in between, the writer should respect this order.Otherwise you can use a counter starting at 0 for the B dataset and another counter starting at 1'000'000  (or more ... depends on your data) for the A dataset and then let them go through a sorter before writing. (I think I remember there was a thread some weeks ago about interference of multiple counter instances ... you should pay attention to this one ...) This can however slow down your process.

            Good afternoon,

I am adding records from multiple source datasets (Sources A and
B) into a single destination dataset. The Destination Dataset is a
text file with a header; source B provides the information going into
the header. Is there a way to specify that the Source B records come
first in the Destination Dataset (so the header is in the correct place)? 

Regards,
JD
