In general, you don't have to cast to a specific message structure
class: the parser returns a Message object, and you can obtain
segments using message.get("segment-name") , and from a Segment you
can obtain a field using segment.getField(field-number). If that's not
generic enough, take a look at ca.uhn.hl7v2.preparser.PreParser.cheers Christian 2013/1/9 steven touw <tou...@gmail.com>: > Hello, > I am new to HL7 as well as it's contents.
