Setting The Repeating Character

The Repeating Character was introduced by the X12 EDI format and used in version 5010 of the implementation guides. By default this value is ‘^’

Example

ediDocument.Delimiters.RepetitionCharacter = ‘^’;
 
The repeating character will be used for both repeating elements and repeating composite elements. For example,
 
DMG*D8*19780302*M*M*:RET:2135-2^:RET:2079-2~
DMG*D8^D8^D8*19780302*M~
 
EDIDocument does not support repeating elements
