>This is very similar to what we did in converting ANSI 4010 format to a VFP database. We are going through the same drill for ANSI x12 837 for building Electronic Medical Claims records, recognizing Remittance records and building other special record sets used in the medical community. This time around, however we are going to build the parsing routines and interpretation database of segment values and calculation routines related to them into a COM object so that it can be called from any number of medical information systems for submission to a variety of payors and clearinghouses as many of them look at the information in a little different manner.

Oh, well, OK. I don't have experience with COM, but perhaps I can help in case you need suggestions as to text manipulation. Just ask on the UT, in case anything isn't clear.
