This depends on whether your data is inbound data or outbound data. If this is on outbound transaction, the remedy is generally straightforward. Prior to outbound translation, you simply create a preprocessor that will clean the delimiters out of the data. Normally you will replace the offending delimiter with some other character. Problem solved.
If this is outbound data, and for some reason you absolutely must keep that delimiter in the data, then you must change the X12 delimiter to some other character. If this is an inbound data, then you must go to your trading partner and educate them. There is nothing else that will work. What they are sending violates the standard.
