Hi All,  
I would like to know whether we  
could process the following attached EDI Files with webMethods.If yes then  
what are the different approaches to follow. It would be great if someone could post a sample package conaining such scenario.There is a control file and a data file.The control file contains the description of records in the datafile.The datafile is a fixed length positional flatfile.

Thanks in Advance
