Operation Stream(Input->Page_In->Page_Out->Output)

 

Operation Stream describes the path and Write Mode(Overwrite,Append,Column Append) between the source text and the destination text.

 

Operation Stream can be defined at middle of the Replace Dialog.

 

 

 

There are 4 types of Operation Stream:

 

 

1. InputFile -> InputPage(do replace here)-> OutputPage -> OutputFile

 

2. InputFile -> InputPage(do replace here)-> OutputPage

 

3. InputPage(do replace here)-> OutputPage -> OutputFile

 

4. InputPage(do replace here)-> OutputPage

 

 

User can select Write Mode(Overwrite,Append,Column Append) between every 2 elements.

 

After the operation, we can see the stream from the log records.

 

 

 

Example:

 

If we want to append many files into one file, the operation stream can be:

 

File1 > P0 > P1 > Output

 

File2 > P0 > P1 >> Output

 

...

 

FileN > P0 > P1 >> Output

 

 

The Operation stream can also be:

 

File1 > P0 > P1

 

File2 > P0 >>P1

 

...

 

FileN > P0 >>P1 > Output

 

 

Note: Since version 2.0, there is another easy way to Merge many files by Tools->Batch Runner menu, click "File Merge" Button. See Batch Runner part for detail.
