I have a message MSG1 with a large field of 1500 bytes. I have another message MSG2 which is 1500 bytes with all the fields defined in a message definition file.
MSG1.msxd
MSG1
F1
F2
:
Data (fix length 1500)
:
Fn

MSG2.mxsd
F1
F2
:
Fn
(1500 bytes)

There is a TYPE of MSG2

I want to update the Data field of my MSG1.msxd with the definition of MSG2. With my limited messsageset building experience , I know that I can update Data to say it is of TYPE MSG2. But the TYPE MSG2 is in another message defition file. I can not find a way to copy the type from one to another.

I can recreate a new MSG1 from scratch. But that seems to be unnecessary.

What is the right way to do this ?

It is; as a bare minimum you can create the new msg set based on the existing one hence including the type.

You should be able to use the same type in 2 messages in the same message set. If the messages are in 2 different message sets why do they have a type in common?

Thanks Vitor, you are right, I should be able to share types between messages within the same message set. I found the MSG2 Type in the drop down. I must not be looking careful enough.
