Hi,
Fixed Format Flat File means fields are determined by fixed lengths & those are fixed to be have some fixed lenth values to those fields

Hi sam kumar ,
can any one tell me wats the Fixed Format Flat File * means??*
We specify FieldFixedLengths in File content conversion parameter.It means you are specifying a String containing the column widths seperated by commas. In the example you given 10,20,30. It means length of 1st column in text file is 10,2nd is of 20,3rd is of 10 length.specifying the length of the column/field.
and field seperator you specify a character which is the seperator in your flat file.
in this example,
120 MATNR 3335660
130 MATNR 4445545
The fieldseperator you specify is a space character(' ').
do i need to use FCC??
Yes , you have to do it.

Ramesh.
