Answer / equalizer

There is no comcept of hash file in ab initio.
Couple of scenarios I can think of
1) If the source file is combined data from multiple files
with header-body-trailer for each file. Create record types
and process.

2) If this is a message that contains information of the
data files then use read muliple files component.
