Steven, thanks for taking the time to respond. I have a few follow up Qs to your response. First of all, the link does not work for me, so I have not had a chance to look at the code examples.

Secondly, I am a little unclear as to where you are pointing me. Let me see if I can put your words into my words and to see if I have it correct.

1. convert each line into XML using the disassembler.
2. use custom XSLT within an orchestration to find like header records and group the lines together under the single header record within that single node as you have shown in the \”To:\” output.
3. debatch within the orch using whatever criteria I decide now that I have the doc in a hierarchical format.
4. map to customer specific format using maps in the ports.

I think I have a good idea how to do 1, 3, and 4, and hopefully after looking the examples I can figure out the custom XSLT. If not I will ask around here.

Again, Thanks for the assistance.
mike
