This BizTalk pipeline component works as a symbol preprocessor.
I use it for EDI preprocessing and for the Flat File processing. It can be used for the namespace replacement and for mediate any stupid inconsistency in the data formats.
It can change the control symbols, can use the RegExes.
Look to the comments inside the Configuration file to details.
Only setup for this component is to fill in the path to the Configuration file.
Please, Let me know is this component is helpfull for you or not.
