HRL help

[Jeannette Wistrom]

I am trying to set up an HRL using two vrl formats.  My file is as follows:

01,,,,,,,,,,,n

02,,,,,,,,,,,,n

02,,,,,,,,,,,,,n

01,,,,,,,,,,,,n

02,,,,,,,,,,,,n

I have defined the two vrl formats and added the global terminator as n.  I then set up the HRL.  I am getting the first record (01) and it shows the format for the second record (02), but no data in the second record.  When I try to do a repeat on the second record (02) then all I get is an empty record.  What am I doing wrong……..

Hi Jeannette,

Let me give it a shot! If the vrl is defined correctly, then it should be the HRL that needs tweaking.

You have two vrl formats: say 01.vrl en 02.vrl, each with fields named f1, f2 etc. I assume you want each HRL message to consist of one 01 record and several 02 records. Your HRL should then look like this:

Segment 1

Name: first

File Name: 01.vrl

Repeat Options: No Repeat

Segment 2

Name: second

File Name: 02.vrl

Repeat Options: Repeat While

   Field: second.f1

   Value: 02

Hope this helps!

The problem was a user error.  I somehow had a capital on one file name and not in my hrl…..Thanks for all the help.
