Hi All, I follow EANCOM - 2002 version for all EDI standards related stuff.... is this the standard that is to be followed or are there any other standards that are followed?

Gary - I have an open source tool in a Java MSXML (COM) implementations that converts EDI to and from an isomorphic XML representation. If you're interested in the details I can send you more information. X12 is an SDO. The standards are not licensed, but they are copyrighted and must be purchased from DISA (www.disa.org) . The ANSI V5 standards are available publicly (I'm sure someone on the list can supply the URL). If you're working in health care and need to use the HIPAA implementation guides, for several years they were available without charge from Washington Publishing. However, the agreement to provide them for free expired and now WPC charges. To purchase, visit www.wpc-edi. com.
