|
|
| GilesTH 2004-06-20, 11:07 pm |
| I have a flat file with multiple fields (A, B, & C) followed by a record type (Tag Id = 1) followed field (D).
There can be mulitple occurances of this record type and it is alway followed by a single totalling record which has a similiar structure (A, B, C) TagID 2 field D.
Example structure
ABC1D
ABC1D
ABC2D
When I validate my instance, I get an error message "The Root Element is missing".
Can anyone help!
Sample document contains (. represents blank row)
ABC1D
ABC2D
..

| Try changing the tagOffsets to 3, so they will match the numeric value
rather than the 'D' value.
