Iterate to add an extra OBX

[Robin Starkes]

I need to add an extra OBX segment at the end of iterate. This is what I have. I’m using an existing iterate to get a count on the number of OBX segments, but this is putting “HELLO” into the first repeating OBX and I need it to be in the last OBX. The value for $%g2 I’m getting is 22 so I would need “HELLO” in OBX.00573 the 22nd repeat.

Can someone assist me.

ITERATE

TABLE 1(0).1(0).1(0).OBX.00571 -> 1(0).1(0).1(%g1).OBX.00571.[0]

TABLE 1(0).1(0).1(0).OBX.00571 -> 1(0).1(0).1(%g1).OBX.00571.[1]

TABLE 1(0).1(0).1(0).OBX.00571 -> 1(0).1(0).1(%g1).OBX.00571.[2]

MATH:ADD =1 $%g1 -> $%g2

COPY =HELLO -> 1(0).1(0).1($%g2).OBX.00573

Thanks

I think take the $ out of you last copy:

COPY =HELLO -> 1(0).1(0).1(%g2).OBX.00573

I tried that and it copies HELLO to all OBX.00573 fields including 22.

Robin,

I think you need to put the copy of hello after and outside of your iterate tree. So when the iteration is all done, then copy hello. As it is now, the copy is happening on every iteration and I don’t think you want that.

Bill is correct about the $ in the address path.

That’s the piece I was missing. I need it outside the iterate without the $.

Thanks you guys a wonderful.
