Input directory is knime://knime.workflow/dataOutput files are stored in knime://knime.workflow/data/trashNOTE: Doesn't clear out data/trash, so if workflow is run multiple times it will make additional datasets in the directory Body of Loop---For each CSV file name grabbed from first node, will perform the task and writeto a new file.
