Y and N are the only options.  There isn't a specific setting for
conditionally required because it isn't enough information.  There is no
codification in the spec (at least in a machine readable way) what the
conditions are for conditionally required fields.  So conditionally
required is treated the same as required in the spec.

The reason you are sending the rejects is because you are trying to pull
out the conditionally required field without checking for its presence.
You need to first do a isSetField before pulling it out.  Otherwise if
you pull it out and it's not there, an exception will get thrown
resulting in the reject.

	I am trying to change some required fields to be conditionally
required.

	First, I was attempting to just add the fields in fromApp(), but
they weren't showing up in the log file.

	quickfix.field.AvgPx val =3D new AvgPx(0);
	message.setField(val);

	Then, I decided to just edit the xml file to match the changes
to FIX that my counterparty made.

	In the xml file (FIX42.xml) the only values I see for required
are "Y" and "N".  I set all the necessary conditional fields to "N", but
am still sending business rejections back to my counterparty with
"Conditionally required Field missing".  Is there somewhere else I need
to set conditions?
