SSIS to Export data from SQL to flat file dynamically

Question

Hi.
I hope somebody can help me out, I have a table like this:
Date, StoreNumber, ProductCode, SalesItem, SalesAmout, Inventory
09-10-2014,10,1,10,10,30
As you can see I have a Date field and my table has information from 2014 at daily basis, What I'm trying to do is to export the information of this table to flat files, creating one file pear each date, as a result I will have about 280 files (one per date)
I do not know if it is possible or not.
Thank you.

Hi Mike,
you can do it using one Execute SQL Task and a ForEach Loop variable driven.
1st the Execute SQL Task "figures out" how many iterations the loop would need. The SQL as follows would drive it:
SELECT DISTINCT [DATE] FROM MyTable;
and you get the dates placed into a package variable of type recordset for the [280] files.
And then you can operate on the recordset in the loop "shredding it" in a DFT with a source query dynamically driven by the date as "select a,b,c from mytable where date = '" + @[User::CurentDate] + "'" placing each
"date" into its own file even naming the file after the date using the current value of the package variable (ADO row concept).
See an example: http://www.sqlis.com/sqlis/post/Shredding-a-Recordset.aspx
