The file adapter takes also the mark of the beginning of the file as a char

[peter_jarsunek]

Hi guys,

I need to use the file adapter for sending data into XI.

My first column of the CSV file contain ID of the objects of length 8 chars. But when the adapter takes also the beginning of the file, the length starts to be 9 chars.

How is it possible to disallow to take this mark?

I didn't find any parameter in the file adapter settings, which could solve this problem.

Thanx for answer! (Points guaranteed )

Guys, thanx for your answers!

Unfortunately, nothing helped. I had to create an XSLT stylesheet and if the first character in ID was this "special mark" (rectangle), I simply cut it off.

But as I say: strange...

Hi Peter,

For more clarity , you can have a look at the help document provided by SAP for XI .

The navigation path is ,

help.sap.com --> Documentation --> SAP NetWeaver --> SAP NetWeaver'04 --> English --> Process Integration --> Exchange Infrastructure --> Run time -->Connectivity --> Adapter --> File Adapter --> Sender File Adapter

Hi Peter,

While configuring sender file adapter, you can do the following.

1. While defining Parameters for Recordset Structures , you can make use of the recordsetstrucure.beginSeparator function which will take the first string in the file as a begin seperator.

i guess this would help you.
