To set up a From Database source component in Iguana, you must specify a generator VMD file. Iguana uses this generator VMD ("Visual Message Definition") file to determine what fields to extract from the database tables, how these fields are mapped to fields in HL7 segments, and the format of the HL7 messages that are generated. In this step, you will be using Chameleon to create a generator VMD file for your Iguana From Database source component. |
