File System Task Editor closes when selecting DestinationVariable

Question

I've set up a File System Task to move a file. I set IsDestinationPathVariable to True. When I click inside the DestinationVariable value column and either click the drop-down arrow or hit the up/down arrow keys on my keyboard, the File System Task Editor window closes immediately. In the same task, I have also set IsSourcePathVariable to True and am able to select SourceVariable without an issue. If I set IsDestinationPathVariable to False, the DestinationConnection drop-down appears to work fine. I've tried restarting Visual Studio, but it had no effect.

Answer 1

I've been able to work around this by directly assigning the values in the Properties window instead of the File System Task Editor, but still curious to know why the editor window isn't working.

Answer 2

Hi D.Ozouf,

I have tried to use File System Task on my Business Intelligence Development Studio, and all seems ok. Please try to drag another  File System Task to the control flow and see if it has the same issue. If so, plese try to repair install the Business Intelligence Development Studio.

Thanks,
Eileen

I suggest you can delete this package and test it again, I used a File System Task, it works fine.
