Hello

Unresolved compilation problems:

Go to the 'code' tab, you will see the error message.
Which version of TOS are you using?

Shong,
I am using TOS v3.0.1 ... in code i am getting the error as,
java.util.List<jxl.Sheet> sheetList_tFileInputExcel_1 = new java.util.ArrayList<jxl.Sheet>();
jxl.Sheet sh_tFileInputExcel_1 = null;
Thanks

you have to define a schema for your tFileInputExcel component. You need as much columns in this schema as the number of columns you want to retrieve from the xls file.
You also have to define which sheet of your excel file you will retrieve the datas from ("Sheet List" option)
Connect the tFileInputExcel to tFileOutputDelimited and that should be ok.
Read the user documentation if you need further information.
