    you have to create the record name as RecordWithNoID (Case Sensitive). Please search for this phrase in the forum and you will find all the details.

    Hi Sthita,

    with this record definition, there is no need for any record identifier. to give you more info, such a kind of definition of record is to extract records which do not have any record identifiers.

    So if you are sure that you dont have record identifiers, then use this option.

    Please give the complete setting again for us to help if u face this problem

    Please elaborate your existing FFSchemaDefinition details/setup that you have done sofar and upload your flatfile sample and give the complete functional details about your parsing requirements also.

    hi reamon/bash,

    I have solved the problem.Thanks to all of u.
    I went thru the FF document wher its mentioned tht for records with no recordID Dictionary must be created.
    I created one
    In FFschema i reffered the dictionary by selecting it in dictionary attribute of properties window.
    Its working now.

    Thnx.Let me know if anybody needs some clarifications.

    bye
