I apologize if I missed it in the documentation or the examples. I'm looking for a sample of how to format a metadata file for a node based on the Fixed Length Data NIO Reader Component. Thanks.

  Thanks, David for the help and the quick response. I do have the examples, and they are very helpful. I must have just missed this one when I was looking for the answer.

  Hi !
  
  You can for example use following metadata construct:
  
  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
  <Record name="Orders" type="fixed">
  <Field name="OrderID" type="numeric" size="5" format="#" />
  <Field name="CustomerID" type="string" size="20"/>
  <Field name="EmployeeID" type="numeric" size="5" format="#" />
  <Field name="OrderDate" type="date" size="10" format="dd.MM.yyyy" />
  <Field name="RequiredDate" type="date" size="10" format="dd.MM.yyyy" />
  <Field name="ShippedDate" type="date" size="10" format="dd.MM.yyyy" />
  <Field name="ShipVia" type="integer" size="3" format="#" />
  <Field name="Freight" type="numeric" size="8" format="#" />
  <Field name="ShipName" type="string" size="20" />
  <Field name="ShipAddress" type="string" size="15"/>
  <Field name="ShipCity" type="string" size="5" />
  <Field name="ShipRegion" type="string" size="5"/>
  <Field name="ShipPostalCode" type="string" size="8"/>
  <Field name="ShipCountry" type="string" size="25" />
  </Record>
  
  THis example is from cloverExamples.rel-1-1-1 - which you can download from Clover's site.
