    From what i interpreted, your issue was assigning the resulting file from the foreach to the connector.

    To do that you need to assign the filename from the Foreach to a variable.

    The first step to be taken is to create the variable. To do that you need to activate the “Variables” window:
    Activating "Variables" window

    Then you need to create a new variable of type string and rename it.

    For more information on SSIS variables and how to create them, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms140216.aspx

    Now you need to assign the new variable (in this case i named it “filename”) to the foreach loop:
    foreach loop steps
    NOTE THAT WHILE THE OPTION “Name Only” IS SELECTED IN THE FIRST WINDOW, IN YOUR CASE YOU PROBABLY WANT “Fully Qualified”!!

    The screenshot was taken from a working project i have and i am using only the name (Name Only) as opposed to the full path (Fully Qualified)

    After doing that you need to assign that variable to your flat file connector using expressions:
