Hi
I am a newbie to BTS 2004. I have a requirement like this. Anybody pls help 
me in designing a solution for the same.

I have an XML file. This file has to be converted into a FLAT FILE (Text fil
e). I understand that BTS 2004 offers a Flat file
Disassembler component in its pipeline stage. To do this conversion I need t
o use a Mapper. Sample contents of my flat file is given below:

[DATE 2004-12-13]
[XYZ Name]
[NAME Sam
Pitroda
Naidu]
[COUNTRY USA
UK
AUS]

My question is how will I give characters like "[" or "]" in my XML sche
ma to map it to flat file schema?

[ Post a follow-up to this message ]

You might consider the "[" and "]" as part of your data, rather then par
t of
the schema.
The mapper gives you the flexibility to concatenate strings for example.

Hope this helps,
Regards,

Christof

Thanks. But how will I achieve the following

Tags appearing n times with the corresponding values, but in my destrination
 tag has to be one with all the n values

Example

Source shcema                                                      Destinmat
ion Schema

<Name>Sam</Name>                                          [NAME Sam Shyv
am USA]
<Name>Shyvam</Name><Name>USA</Name>

Sorry Shyvam... I'm not a FF specialist.  Just know some basics.
I'm sure somebody will help you out here.

(Sounds to me like you need a mapping first though...)
Regards!
Christof

I could not see the attachement. How to retrieve that?

Thanks

There is a setting in Outlook Express under tools | options | security tab.
Uncheck the "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could
potentially be a virus".  This should allow you to access my attachment.
