Hi,

This web is also a good reference for swift messages:

http://www.iso15022.org/

where you can find info about the diferent tags, messages, etc. It may be usefull once you have the messages and you want to get really deep into the tags.

Regards,

Encinas.

Hi,

What is the value contained in :25:? Is it the bank code or the account number? I have seen specification where :25: appears as BankCode/Account Number. What does the field contain when there is no separator?

Thanks,

Sandeep
