FIX: BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT 2.1 support for the MT202COV and MT205COV message types of the SWIFT 2009 Standard

To provide industry-standard compliance with the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) 2009 Standards Release Guide (SRG) specification, Microsoft will release BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT 2009 Message Pack. This new release provides the compatibility that is required for you to use the SWIFT standard that will be imposed in November 2009.

The 2009 Standard provides support for the following new SWIFT dual message types:

• MT202COV
• MT205COV

These SWIFT dual message types are used as cover messages according to the 2009 SRG specification. This hotfix also includes the updated Microsoft BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT (A4SWIFT) disassembler (DASM). This DASM resolves schemas during parsing for the new dual messages types and validates XML at run time for the new dual messages types.

Note You must apply this hotfix before you install the BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT 2009 Message Pack.

Apply the hotfix and then update your existing Pipeline projects by using the new A4SWIFT disassembler. For detailed instructions on how to do this, see the Readme.txt file that is contained in the hotfix package.
