Hi,

Using the above code i'm able to validate the datafile by referring to configuration file for datatype,field length and nullable values, and able to generate the bad records .
Suppose if my bad records are like below:
Code:
id,name,state,street_No 
abc,john,MI,201, 
333,Richard,CA,21Q 
444,Reet5,NY,258 
66,Merry,,3333 
77,,,22

Suppose if i want to add the error codes in to each bad record, means if the record is invalid in terms of datatype then it's 01,in terms of field length then 02 and if interms of 02 then 03. If the record is invalid in terms of datatype and
field length then it should show both the error codes either in the same line or as different lines.
Expected bad record file with error code attached to the end of each record is :
Code:
id,name,state,street_No 
abc,john,MI,201,01 
333,Richard,CA,21Q,01,02 
444,Reet5,NY,258,02 
66,Merry,,3333,03 
77,,,22,03

OR
Code:
id,name,state,street_No 
abc,john,MI,201,01 
333,Richard,CA,21Q,01
333,Richard,CA,21Q,02
444,Reet5,NY,258,02 
66,Merry,,3333,03 
77,,,22,03

How this can be done ?
