        Hi,

         

           Basically my problem is that a single FTP folder would be receiving flat files of different formats. There are no file extensions to these files. So the only way to identify the type of file is to read the content of the file itself. And I need to call different orchestrations based on the type of file.

        How do i do this in Biztalk as I have to pre-define the flat file schema? The fields in these files are positional.

        Any replies would be greatly appreciated.

         

        Thanks in advance,

        Semigeek

          You’ll need some type of schema resolver pipeline component.  There is a sample in the SDK in the Pipeline folder I think.  It based on Flat Files so it should be easy to modify.
