Delimited Data
Records and fields can have a separator specifier.  This specifier delimits the record or field within the data.  Where a delimiter is not specified, the data will be treated as fixed width, using the max-length attribute of the field element.
The example below shows fields and records with separators.

Example FSD 2 - Records and Fields with Separators
<parent>
 <child1/>
 <child2/>
</parent>
Example Output Structure 2
Below is shown an example input for this FSD together with the output that would be generated.
Child 1 Data,Child 2 Data
Child 3 Data,Child 4 Data
Example Input Data 1 - Simple Delimited Data
<parent>
 <child1>Child 1 Data</child1>
 <child2>Child 2 Data</child2>
</parent>
<parent>
 <child1>Child 3 Data</child1>
 <child2>Child 4 Data</child2>
</parent>
Example Output 3 - Simple Delimited Data
The FSD above marks each record as ending with a carriage-return line-feed pair (which is the standard end of line marker on Microsoft Operating Systems).  It then defines two fields for each record.  The first field uses the a comma as a delimiter;  the second field is the last field in the record and therefore it uses the delimiter that was specified for the record as its own delimiter.
