Correct improper use of element separator in some elements of REF~5I segment
Next Step:
TX SET agreed that this needed to corrected, however it was not an emergency change control --- it was considered an example that needs to be clean-up because the data elements showed the correct data description. Change control 2007_705 was already written by Susan Munson and waiting approval by TX SET on future Change Control Conference Call.

Description:
In this example certain elements of the segment are shown to be separated by element separators ("~" in the examples) as opposed to component element separators (typically "^" in the documents).
REF~5I~D2~~JH~Y~ESN~1~QO~2 should be changed to REF~5I~D2~~JH^Y^ESN^1^QO^2
Reason:
Proper use of component separators vs. element separators is critical to ANSI validation of transactions.
It will affect how every market participant processes and sends this segment.
Texas SET 3.0 Redlined Implementation Guide for 867_03 needs to have the gray box changed on the REF~5I segment (p. 14) and the REF~5I corrected in Example 17 of 19 (p. 106) and Example 18 of 19 (p. 107).
