element names in XML from ASCII HL7

[skohalmi]

Can someone please point me to where Mirth controls how an ASCII HL7 message is parsed into XML such that msg['PID']['PID.2']['CX.1'] can be used to access a value rather than msg['PID']['PID.2']['PID.2.1'] in a transformer script?

No matter what I have tried for options, HL7 versions, etc. the msg['PID']['PID.2']['PID.2.1'] method gets me the data but msg['PID']['PID.2']['CX.1'] does not get defined in the XML form of the message read in.

Thank you!

This is a parser setting. Inside the transformer, click on "properties" on the inbound tab. Turn on strict parsing and you will have the proper composite names.
