Clarice OgburnSubject: Need Help defining Flat File with nested repeating fields.

Here is an outline structure:
A0 ------ File Level
AA
AB
B0-------Batch Level
BA
BB
C0---- Claim Level --- repeats (5000)
CA
D0 -- Payer --- repeats (11)
D1 --
E0
E5
E6 ----Provider Level -- repeats (6)

I will also attach a deIdentified Claim file. When I initially defined this, I just used a regex expression to read each record type. However, when I started mapping in the XSLT mapper, realized that this would not work. I need to be able to define each level and the repeating for each level. Please advise.
