I've just started using Biztalk server 2006 and I'm pretty green around the gills. I have a bunch of EDI files that I want processed. I was able to follow the MS tutorial for processing this and I was able to successfully generate xml documents. What I want to know is if there is a way to have Biztalk load a database with this data instead of putting it out into an xml document. If not is there another solution that can be proposed to this problem.
there's a section in the BizTalk 2006 Recipes book that describes inserting a record into a SQL database, pages 337-358, and there's also a section for calling stored procedures. I highly recommend the book, even though it is expensive at $60 retail. The ISBN is 978-1-59059-711-8 and it was published in 2006.
