Craig,
That's correct when you already have the list of file values you do not need userstatus and you can directly hardcode the values in the start loop activity stages or put into uservariable and access it in start loop activity.
i did not understand anu's problem correctly. I assumed that the list of filenames is generated in the previous job and the list of files can be of any number.sorry for that.
Suppose in the previous job i create a comma delimited string with the list of file names, Is there any better way i can pass the comma delimited string to the uservariable or to start loop activity in the job sequence without using user status?
