https://community.qlik.com/t5/Talend-Studio/tFileInputPositional-Unable-to-enter-Pattern-for-complete-file/m-p/2370253#M133324 Hi,&nbsp; <BR />I am trying to create a input for a positional file which had data until the position of 886. I tried using the pattern option in the component and it does not allow me to enter the pattern for position more than 403.&nbsp; <BR />Attached are the screen shots for better understanding of what am telling. Please suggest me a solution.&nbsp; <BR />Thank you for the help and support.&nbsp; <BR /> <span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="0683p000009ME9F.png"><img src="https://community.qlik.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/140367i6D14282E6B8126CA/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="0683p000009ME9F.png" alt="0683p000009ME9F.png" /></span> <span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="0683p000009MEL4.png"><img src="https://community.qlik.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/153508iFB2DAE5250CA9A33/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="0683p000009MEL4.png" alt="0683p000009MEL4.png" /></span> Thu, 16 Jun 2016 20:48:11 GMT Anonymous 2016-06-16T20:48:11Z https://community.qlik.com/t5/Talend-Studio/tFileInputPositional-Unable-to-enter-Pattern-for-complete-file/m-p/2370253#M133324 Hi,&nbsp; <BR />I am trying to create a input for a positional file which had data until the position of 886.
