Multipart Messages in BizTalk Server 2006<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
Multipart messages allow for the grouping of multiple parts into a single message. All messages within BizTalk Server are multiple massages, although most of them just have a single part (the message body), and therefore are not created as a multipart message within orchestrations.
Within a BizTalk orchestration, you can easily build multipart messages containing one or more documents. A multipart message can only have one BODY but any number of other additional parts. As we know, BizTalk sets a message context property called BTS.MessageType. For multipart messages, BizTalk just adopts the BODY part as its message type (the BODY part schema’s target namespace + “#” + the root node name.)
