    Adding Data Elements

    Creating data elements and adding them to a DataSegment is simple.

    Example

    // Instantiate an instance of EDIDocument and set the name of the file to be created
    EDIDocument sampleEDIFile = new EDIDocument(“C:\\My837EDIFile.txt”);

    // Create an interchange loop. This loop will contain all other loops in the EDI structure
    Loop interchangeHeaderLoop = new Loop(“Interchange Header”);

    // Create a Data Segment
    DataSegment gs = interchangeHeaderLoop.CreateSegment(“GS”);
     
    //Set its elements and their values
    gs.Elements.Add(“HC”,“ApplicationSenderCode”,“ApplicationReceiverCode”,“2005”,“132334”,“1”,“X”,“004010X098A1”);
     
    // Set its elements individually
    gs.Elements.Add(“HC”);
    gs.Elements.Add(“ApplicationSenderCode”);
    gs.Elements.Add(“ApplicationReceiverCode”);
    gs.Elements.Add(“2005”);
    gs.Elements.Add(“132334”);
    gs.Elements.Add(“1”);
    gs.Elements.Add(“X”);
    gs.Elements.Add(“004010X098A1”);
