Re: my dilemma -- hundreds of record types

I think I answered my own question.  The FTP feed
always begins new tags on a new line.  I could just
check the first character of the line that I'm
currently reading in, and if it's a "<" then I can
assume it's a new tag. 

Although, if someone used "<" within the data, and it
just happened to be the first character of the line,
then it wouldn't work... 

hmmm...
