There is only one Mapper that does transformations from anything to anything
. It is called BizTalk Mapper.

All BizTalk messages are converted to XMLs at the receive pipeline and assem
bled to specified format at the send pipeline. Between receive and send pipe
lines all
messages are XML.

The main thing you should do to map to or from flat-file is to create schema
 for the flat file. You use BizTalk Schema Editor for this.
This schema defines how flat-file is assembled from or disassembled to XML. 
Mapper does the transformations between XMLs.

So for example if you need to map from XML to FF you create 1 schema for XML
, 1 schema for FF and one map.
When BizTalk picks up the message is uses first schema to validate the incom
ming XML, then it passes XML to the map which converts it to different XML a
nd then at the
send pipeline the resulting XML is assembled to FF.

Thanks,
Tatyana

Hi.

It seems that every Microsoft employee in these days just assume
BizTalk 2004 without reading the content of your posting.

Anyway, most of what was said is true.

BizTalk will convert your document into XML itself. It is the receive
function that does this. The document specification you have created
for your flat file input is also a description of how the XML document
should be.

So BizTalk transforms your flat file input into XML, and it is the
XML-transformation you can use in BizTalk Mapper. So when you open
your document specification in BizTalk MApper, it looks like XML, but
it is actually also a representation of your flat file input.

My answer is still correct. All messages are converted to XML before they re
ach XSLT.

Thanks,

Well, yes.. apart from all the confusing talk about pipelines and
other stuff. That would probably just confuse the questioner.
