Hi Steve. You can loop by creating a Custom Transformer (right-click anywhere in the canvas...). Inside this you can then on the right-click menu choose Insert Transformer Loop. The "Loop" has a setting, where to send the data sent to it. A nice option is to insert an input node that you can redirect the Loop/features to, and hide this INPUT node from Transformer interface. But, nothing of this is what you want or need to do, inorder to output data to different files. The sample workspace attached (made in build 4207) has a Custom transformer showing what I described earlier + an output setting that outputs each line to its own shapefile depending on its OBJECTID. Good luck. /Nisse

I have an FME that reads a personal GDB table. It starts off by reading a table, and I use an Attribute Filter to manually filter out one record based on a number in this table's field. Depending on what the value is of this filtered record, the FME uses this value to start doing multiple joins and outputs a final file containing certain values/info. Do you know a way to run this FME so that it reads this first table (single sourcedataset), and cycles/loops through so that it runs/processes/outputs a file for each record in this table??? So if the table has 100 records, I would run the FME and it would read the first record, process it, and spit out a file, then it would read the next record, process it, and spit out a file - and so on.....ending up with 100 output files. I've never used TCL before, so if this is possible in FMW that would be ideal. Could I use the Looping transformer to do this?
