Sonja, You will need a text viewer that is capable of viewing the X12
data in it's HEX values. What happens is that occasionally some VAN
networks when using a dialup modem will send the data as 80 character
packets with a Carriage Return at the end of each packet as an end of
packet marker. The problem is that the Gentran:Director splitter is
expecting the ISA to be exactly 107 characters long. If you don't
strip the HEX 0x0a character from the data prior to processing the
ISA, the ISA record will be 108 character or 1 character to long and
will break the process. Stripping the character can be accomplished
using the xprocess.exe utility that comes with Gentran. But you will
need a HEX viewer to find out exactly which character is serviceing
as their end of packet character.
