Ola,
p.s. I'll be using lines like this to avoid raising an error, using
the specific strongly typed IsSet() method for each field:
TransactTime_fx60 =
msg.IsSetTransactTime() ? msg.TransactTime.getValue(): (DateTime?) null

If anyone thinks that is not the best way, please let me know.
(TransactTime_fx60 corresponds to a nullable datetime field in my
database.)

Thanks,
Manuel
