Hi Anders,

thanks for your response, I have tried this and can see that the IE SourceRNC-ToTargetRNC-TransparentContainer is decoded with this setting.

But what I need next is actually the decode of the IE:
rRC-Container

please see below for an extract (which I should have included in my original request)

Paul.
