Hello,

I have to generate a quite complex message of information provided in a
database in multiple tables.
Do I have to read the whole data as one input message and then transform it
to the target message, or is it possible, to add data to an existing
message? (I mean, can I create the target message step by step?)

How would you solve this?

Schema can be downloaded here:

Thanks very much in advance!

Max,
It is possible to add data 'as you go' using an orchestration, but
bear in mind that messages in orchestrations are immutable, so once
you've created it, it cannot be amended. I would probably recommend
that you make one call to your database to retrieve the information
you require and map to your output format either on the Send Port
response or in an orchestration. Although this will push more
complexity into your data-layer, it will make the BizTalk solution
simpler and will reduce the overhead of multiple database calls.

If you're concerned about doing complex FOR XML EXPLICIT to generate
your message from multiple tables, I have a blog post which details
how to use the PATH mode introduced in SQL Server 2005, much easier!
See http://www.modhul.com/2008/01/23/an-...-xml-explicit/

Hope this helps, Nick.
