How to access variables in ScriptComponent in a DataFlow task

Question

I am trying to access the package level variable "FirstRecord". However, I can't do :

dts.variables("FirstRecord").value = Truth

How do I access variables in a DataFlow Script Component?

Answer 1

The syntax is different in a Script Component in a Data Flow Task than it is in a Script Task. You are using the syntax for the Script Task.

You can try this to assign a value to the package variable from a Script Component

Variables.FirstRecord = Truth

You can only assign values to a package variable in the PreExecute or PostExecute procedures.
