Hi all,

I’ve been reviewing the 4.3 FIX documents, and have another ‘new guy’ question. I hope one of you can help me.

In various spots in the documentation when messages are being defined, there are ‘blocks’ of the message that are omitted. These blocks are annotated as being defined in “Common Components of Application Messages”. The best example I can give is of ‘Instrument’.

Unfortunately, I cannot find the definitions of these ‘Common Component of Application Messages’. Does anyone know where they are in the documentation ?

Thanks in advance,
Colin
