There was a message posted in 2005 on the topic of invalid characters
in a flat file, asking how to resolve this. Here is the original post,
does anyone have a copy of a quick resolution to this issue?
thanks,
tom

Hi, I've generated a flat file schema, and set the validation instance
to the
appropriate file. However the flat file seems to contain the ASCII
character
0x07, which is invalid when the message is to be transformed to XML.
Altering
the system that sends the flat file is not possible, so how can I
remove that
character from the message before it needs to be transformed to XML?
(It's
fine if i simply remove the character and don't replace it with
anything else)
Do I have to write a custom pipeline component to achieve this? Or is
there
some sort of property I can set in the schema instead.
Thanks in advance for any help.
