Hi all,

I want to write a static header row as the first line of the output text file which will be followed by the actual data rows. I'm using UniversalDataWriter. Any ways to achieve this?

Thanks,
Sreehareesh

  Hi Sreehareesh,
  
  There is a property named "Write field names" in UniversalDataWriter which serves for exactly this purpose.

  Hi Lubos,
  
  Thanks for the quick response.
  
  Yes it works partially. Checking "Write field names" check box gets the fields added to the output file header. But what I exactly need is a static header like,
  
  insert user name;age
  
  When using "Write field names", it just writes name;age as the header.
  Please let me know if there are any ways to achieve this
  
  Thanks,
  Sreehareesh

  Of course, you can create your header in a few partial steps and then save the data records in the next graph phase, using property Append set to true. Please see my example graph.
