I have a SSIS package containing just a script task that sends an email.
The package is fed all the necessary params (To, from, subject, body) and also a param (string) containing a list of filenames, separated by a pipe.
I would like to add those filenames as attachments to the email I am sending.
I guess I somehow have to split the string and loop through it to add the files using attachment.add method.
But my knowledge of C# is not enough.
Who can and is willing to explain to me how to do this?
Code as follows:

* either the list contained in the ReadOnlyVariables property or the list contained in

* code needs to write to the variable. To add the variable, save this script, close this instance of

* To use a parameter in this script, follow the same steps. Parameters are always read-only.

* Example of reading from a variable:
* DateTime startTime = (DateTime) Dts.Variables["System::StartTime"].Value;
*
* Example of writing to a variable:
* Dts.Variables["User::myStringVariable"].Value = "new value";

Solved it like this: creating an array from a string
