retrieve full ADT MSH.9 tag with Xlate

[petitPadawan]

Hello,
i am newbie in cloverleaf,
I want to create an xlate which allows to retrieve all the MSH9 tag
I can’t do it,
But I manage to recover the fields msh9.1 then msh9.2 then msh9.3 and I concatenate everything.
0(0).MSH(0).#9(0).[0]
0(0).MSH(0).#9(0).[1]
0(0).MSH(0).#9(0).[2]

I would like to avoid the concatenation step.
Isn’t it possible to have a command 0(0).MSH(0).#9(0).[*] or other?
thank you

Do you want the HL/7 components combined without any separators? If so, then the way you are doing it is the way to do it (unless you want to use Tcl).

Remember, in the Xlate you are referencing a parsed, structured message (HL/7). There are separators and, where identified, they will be preserved by default.

To ‘get rid’ of them (if that is what you want to do) you have to use things other than the COPY or other move Actions.

If you are attempting to do something else, let us know (like what the destination field is).

If you would like to chat off-line, email me.

To answer your specific question, the Xlate Address Path notation does not provide what you want (* as a global reference).
