Reading RTF Data
Posted: Wed Nov 07, 2001 8:01 am
Hi all,
I have a requirement to read data present in thousands of RTF docs to a database. The data in formatted in the files, such that one record is structured over 1 page. I wonder if i can read it through datastage.
Needless to say, I cannot open each file and save it as a sequential file. I tried converting it to other formats like XML or HTML but the tag info is of little help.
Any suggestions as to how best to handle such a data source. Any inputs from the community shall be of great help.
Thaks in advance,
Regards,
