Batch Macro Error using Directory Tool .txt files

Question

I am trying to use the directory tool to read multiple txt files. I am using a batch macro (attached configuration) but when I run the workflow the macro tool is giving me this error Record #1:Tool#1: Unable to Open file to read.

I am also attaching the Directory tool configuration in case I am missing something there.

two things:

1) I believe your field length is beyond the max length of a vwstring. you should lower that to 2500000 or something.

2) I need to see the replace string/whatever's configed on the bottom. The next question would be for a sample path being fed in --- and a sample path in the action tool.

2) It is a local file and I have access to it

3) Attaching the config of the action tool
