convert the flat file to xml format.

[#1]

hi,

I need to write a interface program in the R/3 to pull the flat file data from the unix application server and do some manipulation and place back into the unix application server in XML format, From the unix box XML file taken by the XI server.

pls give me some idea to convert the flat file to XML format, through any function module or any other logic is there...

with regards,

Thambee.

Is R3 involved in the scenario? If not you might want to reconsider the ncessity of PI. For manipulating something on XML file and produce another XML does not really require PI unless decided to use it..

Hi Thambee,

When ever we can convert the flat file to XML file, We need to use the Adapter in XI side.XI Consultant is take care of that one.
