Exclude directories in tFileList

Anonymous — Tue, 17 May 2016 17:17:38 GMT

In the tFileList component there is an option to exclude some files using regex expressions. Is there a way to do this for directories.
Say I have a Directory called MyDirectories which has 3 other directories inside of it ( Accepted, Rejected, & Others) . All the directories have a .txt file in them . How can I setup tFileList to exclude the .txt file in the Rejected Directory and only pick the .txt files in Accepted & Others directories.

Note: My Starting Directory is MyDirectories and I have checked the include subdirectories option.
MyDirectories
Accepted
a.txt
Rejected
b.txt
Others
c.txt

Princewill,
Below design of the job will help you to get an idea of your requirement.

First Input component will have the path of the Accept and Other directory.
