TACRAO (and also TX-SPEED): Here's a follow-up to my earlier
message. Thanks to quick diagnostic work by Glenn Shelton and James
Maness at TEA and Stephan Baley and Tom Yu at UT Austin, the problem
has been isolated.<br>
<br>
The problem affected the print from the (free) Quick and Easy
software. It may or may not have affected other print or load
programs. The gist of the problem was that a code identifying
these as high school transcripts (district to postsecondary) was
missing from the Educational Purpose Record (ERP). In the EDI file
for TREx transcripts, the record segments would have ISA and GS for
the envelope, then ST, BGN, ERP, and REF. Before the new release
was put in at 6 PM December 6, the ERP segment should have looked
like ERP*DP*~ (you might have specified different delimiters than
the * and ~, but the codes are the same). After the conversion, it
was just ERP**~.<br>
<br>
TEA will get the problem corrected. I don't know whether the
contractors for TREx can correct and re-transmit the affected
transcripts. TEA may have to ask the high schools to re-request
them, and that could be hit or miss. I found that I could use
Notepad to edit the delimited EDI file and insert the DP code, and
save the file. Q&E then produced the desired printout,
including the courses. Or put another way, Courses, not foiled
again.<br>
<br>
Have a great holiday. <br>

Good morning, TACRAO.
A new release of TREx was implemented at 6 PM on December 6. The
TREx
transcripts I received which were produced after that time did not
yield
any printed course records when I ran them through Q&E, although
the EDI
files did have CRS records. TEA is investigating. Please stay
tuned. Dave Stones
