Gregory, No other ideas, but it sounds like a very complicated problem, best of luck finding a solution. Bill Chesnut BizTalk Server MVP

The parsing is done inside an orchestration. If the pipeline that does the parsing fails my solution sends out an xml containing the failing string in an element. Therefore I need to translate the part stream into a string. An administrator can formulate a response xml, change the string-content and make the orchestration retry the parsing with the updated content. The messages come into the orchestration from different RL's where the encoding type is set on the part per RL by a 'FixEncoding' component (see Tomas Restrepo). Anyway, I can make it work with a custom function that finds out the encoding. When there is no BOM it is hard if not impossible to find out the codepage though for variable or single byte char sets (UTF8 or local). That is the reason why getting it from the XLANG message would be a lot easier. I could try to read the property ReceivePipelineConfig from the incoming message in orchestration and try to parse out the property value out of the xml. Any other ideas?

Is it an XML message or a flat file? I think you would need a decoding pipeline component to read the stream, specifically the BOM at the front of the stream to determine this. You might try the sample fix message component and set a breakpoint of the 1st buffer read and see what characters are in the buffer.

The XLANGPart class doesn't seem to have this property. If you look at the message-part in the BizTalk Administration mmc you can clearly see it (UTF-8 or UTF-16 etc.). The only solution I can think of right now is to execute a pipeline with this raw incoming message in XLANG and read it in a custom pipeline component. Thanks!
