	In the above example input file which has no purspose/meaning other than to illustrate how the middleware works, you can see 4 columns of data. In this example we are trying to extract the columns which contain numeric data, columns 1 and 3, and write the output to a xml file.

	The above shows the output from the middleware transformation. Columns 1 and 3 of the flat file have been extracted and then combined with a "-" between them before writing to the output. Again - there is no significant purpose or meaning to this example, it just illustrates what can be done.		The above shows the output from the middleware transformation.
