Hi Chris, My knowledge of enhanced mode processing is a little rusty and I don't have a copy of Chapter 2 handy at the moment, but what you are saying certainly sounds correct to me. I'll have a browse tomorrow and see if my reading of it agrees with yours.
My inclination would be to have ProcessorImpl ignore the ack generated by your application if MSH-16 is NE. Make sense?
