How to identify Repeating Groups?

Imported from previous forum

Dear All,

I am having trouble in understanding how do we identify a repeating group is coming? Are ther specific tags that say a repeating group is coming?

I will be highly grateful to anyone who enlightens me on this topic.

Sagar,

There is a thorough explanation of repeating groups in the 4.4 spec, volume 1, pages 19-20, and it applies generally to all other versions. In short a repeating group is announced by a count field (e.g. NoRountingIDs), the first repeating field mentioned for the group in the spec is always required, must be the first element of each instance and must appear as many times as the value of the count field, and no field that is a member of the group may appear in any other context in the message.

Hope this is what you need.
