Hi all, No misprint. If you look at the definitions on p.13 of "optional_line_value" and "optional_xref_ID" the delimiter is included there in each case. The document is quite correct, this is how grammars are defined. Otherwise the delimiter would be required before and/or after the tag even if there was no optional field. /mike On 3 Aug 2011, at 06:54, Mikkel Eide Eriksen wrote: > Hi Ron, > > That indeed looks like a typo.
