Datafile importing - Headers? Footers? Mixed separator style?

Jon Steelman-3
Does datafile import support importing files that have headers? Footers? Can
you mix separator styles like fixed width and delimited in the import of a
file?

Thanks,
Jon

Yes it does. There is not much documentation for this part of OFBiz,  
but if you know how to read an XSD file or have a tool that can help  
you interpret it (many XML editors do) then that is a great place to  
look.

I did an exercise of going thru the code to document the xsd.
I found the xsd confusing and lacking.
there are still a few areas i am not clear on.
