Hi Pankaj ,

Main use of Content conversion is to convert any data like values against its field which is not in xml formate

e.g

name age psno

Sunil 23 123456

Pankaj 23 23654

to convert in xml formate so that it will appeare as field and its corresponding value ,Many Fields under one node .so that it can be properly updated in any database.and hence by doing Content Conversion you can avaoid a complex java mapping .

+File System NFS and FTP+

Can u plz tell me the difference between the two?

Which one to use when?

IF you want to pick file from anf FTP then use FTP

and if you want to pick a file from any local network then use

NFS
