BTW, do they also change these ID's on incoming messages?  That would be a 
bigger problem.

Subject: Changing SenderCompID


Is there a way to easily change the SenderCompID without starting a new
session?

I am doing the ttCert tests and they want me to change the FirmID which
for them means changing the fourth, fifth, and sixth characters of the
SenderCompID.

I've tried setting the value SenderCompID in the header of a new message
and then using a current session to send it (ie
sessionX->send(message)). But the SenderCompID is not changed. I however
don't get an error. It is just not changed.

It would be handy (at least for my purposed) if the send methods would
recognize the SenderCompID in the current message if it has been set and
otherwise use the default one for the session.
