Hi David, No, the only "field" that has this power is the template identifier. Once you're decoding a given template, the number of logical fields cannot change. Is the field that indicates the structure the first field of the message? If so, it could be possible to pretend it actually is the TID and have the real value of that field constant coded in the corresponding template. But I've too little information to say if it would fly in your particular case. /David > The question is really this: > > Is there a way of using FAST 1.1 templates to describe an encoding > scheme where the template for the second half of the message is > determined by the value of a field in the first part of the message? > [You can unsubscribe from this discussion group by sending a message to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Financial Information eXchange" group.
