Reading text files not delimited (mainframe)

Hi there!

I’m trying to figure out how to read data from a not delimited file. I can do it from SAS, R or even Oracle. But cannot see any Node to do this task.

Just to example: There are 2 files: 1) with the data itself and 2) with the metadata about how the data is arranged inside the data file.

Something like:

from column 1 to 4 seq;

from 5 to 8 year;

from 9 to 10 month

and so on!

Thanks in advance!!!
