[quote user="rseroter"]A Beta1 is out now, but it may only be for TAP customers as it's on the Microsoft Connect site, not MSDN. Stephen got the target dates right for RTM.[/quote]
Right, there was one for TAP customers on Connect, but the program has closed. Basically they are not accepting any more applicants to preview the software.
As this is quite some time away and also not available, it will not be a consideration for evaluation, but it should be a decent quality release, given the amount of time that is being devoted to testing.
Not going to have much success getting that to work (VB Script, that is), but, you can call out to a component that uses the ExplorerOM to interact with the port via .NET interface.

I'm pretty sure that the Event Log is the only place it can go. That said, the MOM Management Pack has a rule that will fire when it detects that event added to the log. So, you could have an email sent out of that process. However, you'd need MOM in place.
The "FILE.ReceivedFileName" context property on a message (if picked up via FILE adapter) stores the full path and file name. You can manipulate that value in a pipeline or orchestration to make a decision based on the file name. See this for more … http://blogs.msdn.com/richardbpi/archive/2006/07/05/656948.aspx.
*Sigh*. To backtrack a post, I didn't say the move from 2000 to 2002 was rough, I said "While the upgrade story from 2000/02 was admittedly rough .." meaning moving from either versions 2000 or 2002 up to the latest version was, and is, challenging.
Back on THIS point, the HTTP adapter supports SSL (see "SSL Client certificate thumbprint" property in send port).

So, just to recap. I can use the http adapter in Biztalk 06 to send a message via https (post) directly to the Suppliers https//server??

Yes, presumably you can use that transport. It requires coordination on both sides. I have never done it. He has to have the server application to receive the file and use it. There would usually be a response document in this handshake, telling you that the complete file was transferred.Basically what you are asking is "can I roll my own https transport?" and the answer is yes. Especially if you can write the application on your end and the supplier's end.
Because of the application conventions required for reliability, AS2 is the preferred standardized https transport adaptor. Here is a "free" one (whatever free means) http://www.freeas2.com/
Let us know how it goes.

Dear greg.forsythe,
Thanks for your response, i will read the tutorial you sent, and if there is any other links please provide me,
Thanks again.
The terms all reflect the underlying Xml structure:
<root>
<record childattribute="value">
<childfield>value</childfield>
</record>
<siblingrecord>
<childrecord>
<childfield2>value2</childfield2>
</childrecord>
</siblingrecord>
</root>Sibling is equivalent to brother or sister i.e. at the same level
A good idea may be to learn about Xml.
W3C has the spec, and there are tutorials, etc http://www.topxml.com/xml/LearnXML.aspOne of the keys to Biztalk is understanding Xml Namespaces.
Strange. Maybe it’s using a helper class that required a registration fee?
I’ve used some cmd based PHP before without any issues.
Good to hear there is a good sample out there – I’m sure that’ll come in handy.
OK, I guess I stand corrected. I am glad that you aren't doing anything unethical.
Thanks for providing an open forum.

This is not true.
I do no moderation or censoring of any kind on anything BizTalk / Microsoft related.
I encourage open, free, and anonymous (if you wish) communication and discussion.
The only moderation / deletion is for SPAM related items. The spam filers sometimes catch non-spam posts, but I always approve non-SPAM items regardless of content.
And to be honest, if the topic isn’t “buy meds here” I don’t even read the posts that are flag for moderation.
I do have other controls in place that restrict number of posts and duplicate posts, but again only for SPAM control.
Well, as the discussion was going on, I noticed on one post that the reply page said something to the effect of "this forum is moderated, your reply will not show until it is approved by the moderator" and it took until a day later for my reply to show up on the thread. I had never seen this reply on any other post on the forum. My posts on all other threads appear instantaneously on other threads.
Consequently, my last post to the said thread in question never did show up.

So Stephen, hopefully you can understand the reasons for my suspicion. I was accused of being a frustrated Covast employee, among other things, which I am not. I am an EDI architect that has invested career time in a product that turned out to be a bust. My valid criticisms were met with derision and flat out misinformation from the Microsoft employee, and then I was apparently silenced on that thread. Forgive me if there is another explanation.
Also, FYI, Seroter embarrassed himself. He said on that thread that the upgrade from 2000 to 2002 was notably painful. What he should have said was 2002 to 2004. It is pretty shameful for someone who claims to have knowledge of the product prove himself to be such a rookie. There was other misinformation he spread also. To say that Microsoft never sold BizTalk as a full EDI solution is a flat out lie.
So why is there so much censoring and misinformation being spread on a web board claiming to be free and open?
