Hi all..
I have installed Cognos 8 server in different system and Transformer in my local system..I'm unable to connect to the server...Please tell me steps to be followed to connect to the server..

Thanks in advance.....

Absolutely, see the transformer user's guide, chapter 3: "Flat files are an excellent data source for achieving fast cube builds."
