Chris,
I think we can cook up something cool for this, but we need to know a few things first.
Is the <CSV type="RecordDescriptor"> element the same each time? That is, do you need to handle just one record format?
Or, maybe there are only 3 or 4 different formats you need to handle?
Or, maybe it is totally variable, and the solution needs to be completely general.
=====
Second, can you clarify what the output format is? Your example seems to imply that the output should be CSV, values separated by comma characters, but you say that you want fixed length. So, do you want fixed length fields with the commas, or just fixed length fields without the commas?
=====
Finally, the data items in your example are already the correct output width. Is that always the case, or do you sometimes need to pad them to the correct length? In the <Record> elements, do all data items always exist, or are there sometimes missing items which need to be replaced by the correct padding?
Thanks
Clyde
