Here is the output from the Testing Tool for an xlate

Can anyone give me an idea of what the “Mismatched IR Tags” error means?  I thought it related back to an XLT incorrectly identifying a numeric field as text, but changing the field data type did not make the error message disappear.

This message shows up in the EO as well as in the output for the Testing Tool when testing an XLT file.

Thanks.

A field address is incorrect somewhere in your Xlate.  To figure out which one, I’d suggest adding a COPY statement in the Xlate that has a source and destination of @null, and just a simple ‘puts “HERE”‘ in the pre-tcl to echo.  Place that COPY statment half way down in your Xlate, then run it through the test tool again.  If the echo statment (HERE) displays prior to the IR Tag message, you know that the field(s) in question are farther down in your Xlate.  Move that echo statement up or down accordingly until you find out which statement has the wrong field addressing, and fix it.

That worked…cool.

Thanks, Mike!
