Hi All,

I am debugging my OrderBook and keep getting messages rejected due to a
duplicate Tag 269.

Here's the error I am getting running Tradeclient when I send a
FIX42::MarketDataRequest for symbol ("dog") and my OrderBook replies with
both the bid and offer sides:

Here is my order book's reply.  I've sent the bids over (269=0) in
descending order and the asks over (269=1) in ascending order.  Why am I
getting message rejected with duplicate tag 269s?  I though with repeating
groups I could have as many as possible.  I am using C++ to construct this,
if that matters.  Am I missing some field?
