That will enable the Generation mode dropdown, which will let you select Event Mode. This reduces memory usage and should avoid the heap space issue.

However, since the file size is huge (around 18 MB), I am getting a runtime exception while creating an excel file. Attached is the screenshot for the same. Kindly suggest how to handle large files.</P> <P><SPAN class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="error.jpg" style="width: 999px;"><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="0683p000009LvN2.jpg"><img src="https://community.qlik.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/145208i69228C2ABF0741C8/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="0683p000009LvN2.jpg" alt="0683p000009LvN2.jpg" /></span></SPAN></P> Thu, 06 Jul 2017 11:43:24 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/Talend-Studio/Runtime-memory-exception-while-loading-an-excel-file/m-p/2316272#M86835 Anonymous 2017-07-06T11:43:24Z https://community.qlik.com/t5/Talend-Studio/Runtime-memory-exception-while-loading-an-excel-file/m-p/2316273#M86836 If you're reading an xlsx file, you'll want to tick that box below the file name.
