Chris, Thanks. I stand corrected and also heartened to know that the X12 838 did inform the work of the CPP/A effort. I remember the years (yes, years!) of debate and rancor that the development of the 838 went through. It was one of the most emotional and controversial efforts of X12 before Y2K hit us!
