Object: EHL7.HL7FileAnalyzer

FileName: EHL7.dll

 

PROPERTY

 

Name: EOM (End of Message)

DataType: String

Mode: Read/Write

Default Value: Ascii character 28 (Hex '1B') & Ascii character 13 (Hex '0D')

Description: See the HL7 rules for parsing characters. The parsing character(s) used by EasyHL7 when reading HL7 messages using the Vendor and the EHL7Message Object.  The HL7 standard default value is 2 characters:

1.Ascii character 28 (Hex '1B')
2.Ascii character 13 (Hex '0D') 

 

When parsing files received via TCP/IP from the vendor each HL7 transaction set should end with these character(s).  If the file/transmission contains more than one HL7 message then officially this character string should appear at the very end of the file rather than between each message. The character(s) DOES NOT have to be in the message for the HL7FileAnalyzer object to work but if it is present it MUST match this properties value.
