I need to trigger a sequence automatically if any file arrives in a particluar directory.Whil running the file will be deleted by sequence. Once the sequence gets completed again it has to wait for files in th same directory. How can I achieve this ?

You can have a master sequence and use the wait for file activity stage to trigger other sequences.

As you've already found in your other thread with this question you cannot use wildcards in the WFF stage.
