Can Biztalk Editor handle this ?
|

| The file I'm receiving is outline below. It contains
various sections and sub-sections(nested inside section).
The file is sent as ASCII file with each section
containing multiple fixed length fields. The sections are
seprated by Line feed character.
SectionName Required/Optional Loop Repeat
========================================
===============
SHH01 R 1/1
------------------------------------------------------
SOH01 R 1/*
------------------------------------------------------
SOD01 R 1/*
------------------------------------------------------
SOV01 O 0/*
------------------------------------------------------
SUM01 R 1/1
========================================
================
There will be only one occurrence of the SHH01 Header and
SUM01 footer record for each file. There can be multiple
SOD01, SOV01 records for a SOH01 record.
When I create schema, maintaining the section hierarchy
the BizTalk editor throws error saying that "The parent of
a record cannot be a positional record. Specify a
different parent." I'm unable to create a valid schema.
It seems biztalk editor does not allow hierarchy(i.e,
records containing other records) for positional files.
Can somebody confirm this? Has any one face similar issue
and knows the resolution ? Please help.
Thanks,
Anunay

(As for as i know) Yes
In current schema specification, a child record can occur 1 to many within
the parent record.
So it is difficult for biztalk to knows the end of child record within the
parent record.
So hierarchy is not supported for positional files.

| I know that I've done this before using Biztalk, so I will follow up to get
my details right before responding. From what I remember, the structure was
listed as delimited, with the delimiter being the line feeds, and then below
that, I had positional records.
I'll see if I can come back later today with a good example.
