You can access an attribute or element in two different ways within Biztalk using ‘Distinguished Fields’ and ‘Promoted Properties’. A basic rule for ‘which to use’ would be: Always use a Distinguished Field, unless you need to route, track, or correlate on the content, then use promoted fields. (more…)

It’s possible to set the filename of a messages that your are going to send out in the orchestration. Just set the ‘ReceivedFileName’ context property of the outbound messages that you created.
This should look like this:
OutboundMessage(FILE.ReceivedFileName) = "TheNewFancyFileName.xml";
After this you have to set the filemask in the sendport to %SourceFileName% (it’s case sensitive). The %SourceFileName% macro does not need an additional extension (like .xml or .txt) after it like the %MessageId% macro. (more…)
