Dave,
About a year ago I switched to the scripting language PERL. It was easy to learn and seems to handle all my client's mapping needs. I use Trading Partner PC from Emanio, as the translator, a low priced translator with plenty of installs. (www.emanio.com). Oh yes, the price of Perl is free, it is part of the open source movement. (www.perl.org). EDI syntex is controled by Trading Partner PC, and Perl writes just about any file that exists.
