Dear Friend,

After getting Purchase Order Acknowledgment data from databse table I need to parse data to EDI file.

When i parse the data I am getting EDI file in below format.
PO1*2*10*BX*16.75*CA*VC*VC200!

Customer would like to have the file to below format
PO1^2^10^BX^16.75^CA^VC^VC200~

Please Help Me.

From what I remember, EDI formats usually tell the receiver what the delimiter is in a special header field. So there shouldn't be any need to change the delimiter like this. Maybe the receiver's parser can only handle one type of delimiter?

If the * only ever appears as a delimiter then you can use ESQL's REPLACE to change the delimiter. But if a * can appear in the data ( prefixed by an escape character ) then you will have to create or buy a message set to parse the message, and then change the delimiter and let the MRM parser write the new format.
