      I am having a difficult time getting the FT1 segment to repeat. Done this many times before with no trouble so i’m not real sure what i have screwed up. My xlate code, basis and variant are in attached doc. Also i am using same variant IB and OB.

      Thanks for any help.

          Kevin,

          I don’t think your basis is correct (did you use the ‘Copy to Basis’ button on the Inbound tree to set it?

          Thus if your basis is not correct, then your placement of the repetition variable is not correct in the PATHCOPY Address pathing.

            Are you iterating on a group or segment or both?  Looks like a group with a repeating segment.

              Im not real sure why but i took the 1(%g1).0(0).FT1(0) and took off the ending (0) and it works now.

                Also sometimes I find I need to remove the (0) after the segment name of FT1 if you just want to copy all segments.

                Pathcopy 1(%g1).0(0).FT1 –> 1(%g1).0(0).FT1

                If the segment repetition falls at the parentheses after FT1, then technically you would only copy the first repetition with

                1(%g1).0(0).FT1(0) as your path.

                    I guess that answers it…

                      i have to add some more changes this to xlate and i am having trouble again with the Iterate. I originally had trouble getting the FT1 to iterate but i took off the end and it worked. Now i am having trouble adding code to all the iterations of the segments. Any ideas.

                      Thanks.

                        You will need another iteration but this time use the ft1 segment.

                          It is a repeating FT1 segment. it’s a DFT^P03 message for version 2.3.1.

                            With the 2.3.1 variant and no modifications, I show the DFT_P03 message to have the FT1 segment as part of a repeating group.

                            The iterate for the ft1 statement would be

                            Group

                            Basis 1

                            variable %g1

                            Iterate
