Tag is a name (label, mnemonic) assigned to a data structure, such as a field. A tag delimiter is a character that indicates a separation between tags. The delimiter must be selected so that it does not occur within the body of a field or record, or it will be difficult or impossible to determine if it is a delimiter or data. Note: The tag delimiter character is not available for Fixed Length or Variable Length formats.
Available tag delimiters include the following:
=
,
#
@
:
;
&
<
>
