It would be advisable to hide the X12 part. I believe the UN/EDIFACT standards bear no such restrictions so long as you include the UN/CEFACT copyright notice.
However, it's only marginally useful as it is without segment or data element names, descriptions, semantic notes, purpose and scope of the transaction set, code lists, code list references, etc. You are also missing the syntax notes (or X12 relational conditions). And, for EDI purists you should probably call it "Data Element" and not "Field". Data element numbers would also be useful. Mike ----------------------------------------- Michael C.
