William, Despite the confusion, do you think that the Loop 1000 in the 837 has any value as a location for a "return" or "answering" EDI address for use by the entity identified in loop 1000 as the "receiver"?
It did not sound like Raj was talking about the ISA, but what was the "implication" that you were thinking about re:addressing? -Chris At 09:16 PM 2/22/02 -0500, William J.
