Help to configure flat file connection manager to use a variable for the connection string

$

Greetings to All,

I'm currently going through the available Microsoft's SSIS Tutorial Create A Simple ETL Package. Lesson 1: Creating the Project and Basic Package was successfully completed.

Lesson 1 specifies to add and configure a Flat File Connection Manager; this connection selects a single data file.

Lesson 2 of the tutorial, Adding Looping, now calls to modifying the Flat File Connection Manager that was created on the previous lesson. A Foreach Loop container was added in the Control Flow Tab, enumerator was configured, and the variable was created to map the enumerator.

However, when I go to the Properties of the Flat File Connection Manager, I go to the Properties Expression Editor and select "ConnectionString," I don't see a Variables node so I end up having to cancel.  I only see Mathematical Functions, String Functions, Date/Time Functions, NULL Functions, Type Casts, Operators.

Any ideas how I can get to the Variables node?

Thank you for your help in advance,
