I have an iterate that allows for repeating OBX segments and an IF that suppresses OBX segments if field 5 is null. But I need to allow for possible repeating NTE segments also. I can get the NTE segment (haven’t tried a repeating one yet) but when the NTE segment comes any OBX segments that should follow do not.

I have a group that contains OBR’s that I iterate on, and then within that group is a group that contains the OBX and NTE segments I need to repeat.

Any ideas.

  What does your iterate for your OBX/NTE group look like? It sounds like you don’t have your iterate variables set up correctly. If you have group like the following:
  
  {
  
  OBR
  
  {
  
  OBX
  
  [{NTE}]
  
  }
  
  }
  
  Your OBR should be something like: 1(0).1(%g1).0(0).OBR
  
  Your OBX should be something like: 1(0).1(%g1).1(%g2).OBX
  
  Hope this helps…

  The group looks like this.
  
  {
  
  OBR
  
  {
  
  {OBX}
  
  [{NTE}]
  
  }
  
  }
  
  I am going to check my groupings. I may be off a place.
  
  Thanks you have been a great help I will let you know.

  From what I can see I have the groupings correct. I get the repeating OBX segments. And I get the NTE but if there are any OBX after an NTE mit doesn’t show up. Everything stops after the NTE. ??

  You mentioned that your grouping looks like this:
  
  OBR
  
  { <-- These curly braces should control the OBX. {OBX} <-- So these curly braces around this OBX aren't need [{NTE}] } <-- These curly braces should control the OBX. } Try removing the curly braces from around the OBX and see if it works for you. Hope this helps…. Tom Rioux

  Great, I did it and that worked. I also had to move the iterate for the NTE segment onto the second group iterate. So far everything looks good. I am ging to test with mutiple NTE segments to confirm.
  
  Thanks so much for all your help
