Hi Moorthy,

I think I am not clearly explaining my query.

I have H&D values for header & detail respectively. But my query is that can I have a structure like this.

Header

>Hkey

>node1

>node2

Detail

>Dkey

>node3

>node4

Here can I have Hkey to hold H value and Dkey to hold D value? Or should both Hkey & Dkey must have a common name?

Thanks & Regards,

Jai Shankar.

Hi Moorthy,

Thanks for ur help. I have different values for header & detail key field. So I assume it is not possible to have 2 different nodes say Hkey & Dkey as keyfield.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

No, you need to have one key field, and value of this can be different in each segment/node.

E.g

H,123,122...

D,123,4,4....

H,123,122...

D,123,4,4....

If your file looks like this, and assume your file contains H for ( Header)and D for (details)> and these values acts as key value to determine the nodes.

Then keyfied name be any name like <i>Key</i>.

But here, <i>Key</i> value is different in each segment right. It is possible in file adapter. SO I think it clarifies you.Also have a look into the given blog to get more
