Connection Manager Property Expression Editor


Is it possible to use a property, say name, of an object ( say the connection object) in the "Property Expression" of that object? I would like to modify the Connection String property of a flat file connection manager to append date to it. To do this I need to be able to use the Name property of the connection manager in the Property Expression editor. How ever I get an error that it does not recognize name, it almost seems to suggest I can only use variables. I find it hard to believe since it seems like common requirement to be able to use properties of an object (connection manager) in modifying other properties of the object. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I do not think it is possible. However, I guess you could base both properties on the same variable that will contain the name.

Thanks.
